In the Records with Uncertain Phones area, choose one of the following to determine how Phonology Assistant (PA) searches records containing transcriptions with uncertain phones:
Search Transcriptions Derived Only from Primary Uncertainties to only search the transcription that can be derived from the primary uncertain phone(s) in the record. For example, if a record contains the transcription b(a/i)t then PA would search only bat because [a] is the primary uncertainty in the (a/i) uncertain phone group.
Search Transcriptions Derived from Primary and Non Primary Uncertainties to search all transcriptions that can be derived from uncertain phones in the record. For example, if a record contains the transcription b(a/i)t then PA would search both bat and bit.
