Firstly you need to:

1. Export the *.xtd (termbase definition) and the term data itself (*.XML)

2. Create a new Termbase using the *.xtd from the original termbase

3. During reference, you can amend the entry structure.

As you say

How can I move the Source field to a deeper level, so that I get this:

Term

       Definition

                Source

4. Once complete then import your term data (XML)

I trust that's all the instructions you need

Dear Lydia,

this didn't work for me. I created a new termbase with Definition and Source at the same level, added some terms with definitions and sources. Then I saved the export definition and exported the TB to an xml file. I created a new TB using the xdt file, modfied the structure so that Source was a level below, and then imported the xml. When during import I didn't check the Fast import (import file is fully complian with MultiTerm xml), nothing was imported. When I checked the box, I didn't need to add an exclusion file and the import was succesfull, but the source cfield was at the wrong level. Nevertheless, thanks for your answer.

Use the Glossary Converter from the appstore.  Convert to Excel and then create a new termbase from the excel based on the new structure.  Should be simple enough.

It's an excellent tool, free, and the support website and documentation is clear and easy to follow.
