What language / writing system is recommended for proto forms in the Etymology > Source Form field? I have lines for [vernacular], [vernacular]IPA, English, and an LWC showing in Source Form. My pre-8.3.1 data is all in the [vernacular] line, but in 8.3.1 the default appears to have been changed to English. At least that's where the source word form goes when typed into the 'unmarked' Etymology line (when everything nested in Etymology is still hidden). Should I move everything to English and go with the new 'default' (it looks like this would be possible with Bulk Edit [open two columns of Etymology - Source Form and select different writing systems for each])? Or is there a compelling reason to stick with [vernacular]? Advice appreciated!

Paul,
You can also change where the “etymology” (or other) information occurs in your entry.
Tools à configure à dictionary à highlight “etymology” and use the up and down arrows to move it to the position where you want it to display.
I’m playing with getting the things speakers will want to occur FIRST in the entry and things linguists will want to occur toward the end.
