BUG: Wrong lexeme link in NASB95

The wrong ESL entry pops-up on touch and hold for "Devise" as seen below.

However, the correct ESL entry pops-up when the LHI is consulted.

I've encountered many similar errors in the touch and hold pop-ups on the mobiile platform, at least in NASB95. I obviously haven't kept a percentage tally of such error frequencies, but I'd conservatively say 10-20% is about right, though it might be higher. I know it certainly feels much higher. Considering that such errors should be on the lower side of 0-1%, that figure is unacceptably high--it borders on making the platform unuseable. It's akin to a vehicle occasionally refusing to go into second gear. Please do something to correct such errors on a global scale for the NASB95.

This does not appear to be a mobile issue. I checked on desktop with the same results.

Strange - it worked correctly for me on desktop.

It would be interesting to understand the differences between what we are seeing

Although this is not something I would normally do (so I may have not done it correctly) I did do it to help confirm the problem.

When I tried it I got this...

Not sure if it helps or not?

Thanks Mike

The issue is that the resource selected (and hence entry shown) depends on resource prioritisation

It looks as though David's most highly prioritised matching resource is ESL (and what I configured for my test) whereas yours is HAL which doesn't have the problem.

So it does look as though there is something in ESL that is not supporting this properly on mobile.

Agreed, there does seem to be a problem here with the Enhanced Strong's Lexicon.

I am not able to duplicate this issue in Desktop, but I can in Mobile.

I am opening a ticket, so that this issue can be investigated further.

Found another inaccurate link in the NASB95.

Selecting the word "manner" in Gen. 31:35 NASB95 opens an ESL pop-up for the verb daarakh: (H1869) even though the pop-up says the lemma is the noun derekh: (H1870), which is confirmed by the text and lemma lines of LHI (see to right of the black menu bar). Odd that the pop-up window provides both correct and incorrect info.

This is why it feels MUCH higher...

Just like the post above, and only three verses later, the chosen word "miscarried" provides the wrong ESL entry (H7919) when the metadata at the top of the pop-up says the correct entry is H7921.

This happens so often, I feel like it has to be some sort of fundamental coding error. Whatever the reason, this is a core useability feature that must be resolved asap.

Also of note... regrettably...if I tap the blue 7919 at the beginning of the Strong's entry, it doesn't open up ESL to H7919. That would be far too correct. Instead, Vine's opens up.
