Wrong Greek word for "World" when amplified in Louw and Nida

    Hi Billy, I just gave this a try. What I see is that, since Louw and Nida don't give Rm 12:2 as a reference in connection with αἰών, the word translated there as “world”, Accordance first searches the reference. So in the entry for συσχηματίζομαι, Rm 12:2 is also highlighted. 

    However, when I do this search, I get two results: the first is συσχηματίζομαι, but right after that, as I scroll down, Accordance also gives this: “41.38 κόσμοςc, ου m; αἰώνc, ῶνος m: the system of practices and standards associated with secular society (that is, without reference to any demands or requirements of God) — ‘world system, world’s standards, world.’”

    αἰών is highlighted as a hit, along with Rm 12:2 in the preceding entry.

    So I don't think this is a bug, it's just the fact that the reference is given separately from the Greek word used. Can you confirm that this is what you get as well?
