I’m learning Persian using Anki and would like to incorporate lexical stress into my flashcards. I would like to create a field ‘Lexical Stress’ in which I will highlight the stressed segment. I have already created my flashcards with a field ‘Pronunciation’ which shows how the word is pronounced but would like to test myself on Lexical Stress separately through another field. Is there a way to copy an existing field ‘Pronunciation’ into another field ‘Lexical Stress’ automatically without having to browse the card or copy and paste??
