Right-clicking "carro" in a Portuguese document showed a full word card
— gloss, phonetic, two definitions — and stored nothing. The forward
lookup of a Portuguese word answers empty; everything the card renders
comes out of `reverse`, and the capture gate only ever read the forward
fields. Academic while every document was English. On a Portuguese
document it emptied the garden of exactly the words she met.
So the reverse reading now counts as known, and fills `definition` (its
gloss is the English sense — "carro" → "car; automobile; machine",
which is what a review card wants) and `phonetic`. Forward lookups are
untouched: the reverse fields are read only where the forward ones are
empty, so an English word with a Portuguese gloss captures exactly as
it did.
