Task: use defs instead of glosses in word lists

I think we decided on Monday (talking with Ewa) that you should go ahead and use the full def:segs instead of the glosses in the "get related words" and "other entries containing this morpheme" lists. The glosses are only intended as headwords for the English-Nx word list.

Our example was cìqqnúnn, with the def:seg "I accidentally dug up something". The gloss tags are "dig", "dug", and "accidentally". We want the Nx word to appear (with its def) under all three headwords in the English-Nx word list, but we don't want a learner to look at the "get related words" list and think the word can be used to mean just "accidentally".
