(<lemma = lbs/el/χαρά> OR <lemma = lbs/el/χαίρω> OR <lemma = lbs/el/συγχαίρω>)

works in both Bible and Morph search;

while

lemma:χαρά OR lemma:χαίρω OR lemma:συγχαίρω

only works in Morph search

    I suspect that is because both language el and morphology lbs are already specified by the morph Search header! But i'm not convinced that detail is needed in Bible search. I'd like to find the lemma irrespective of morphology because it allows surface:χαρά by transforming it into surface:([lang el] χαρὰ)  !!?

    Curiouser and curiouser... I thought let me try substituting lemma: for surface: in surface:([lang el] χαρὰ)... doesn't work.

    As I checked through my resources, none of them list lemma as a Search Field, although in Logos 3 all relevant resources do... is this because we are supposed to be using Morph search for this kind of query?

    Still no joy in beta 4.
