There's some odd markup:

> <div>you cant p<span class="ex">er</span>​seve the suet from the meat</div>

It's also around a possible spelling error"? (preserve vs perseve)

[coroxout]

The markup flags up abbreviations. I'm not quite clear on the distinctions between the different tags but it looks like "ex" is for expansions/excluded letters and "sl" is something to do with superscript letters, or thereabouts.

I think “perseve” == perceive.
