Hi Brian,

Thank you so much for the suggestions.  I read that section of the manual
but now when I run a check on the transcript, the system says that the
symbol is not declared in the depfile for lines like this one:

*CLE: [-eng] how do you say sad ?

I listed the languages at the beginning of the document in this way:

@Languages: ita, eng

Do you know what I am doing incorrectly?
Thank you and Happy Thanksgiving!

Kelly
