In the meantime, based on the information you have provided, here is a suggested answer to your question:  

Hello Simon,

To change the default source and target languages for your termbase in MultiTerm Desktop, you can follow these steps:

**Step 1:** Open MultiTerm and navigate to the **Resources** tab.  

**Step 2:** Click on the **Terminology** tab.  

**Step 3:** Check off the termbase you would like to modify.  

**Step 4:** Click the **Edit** button.  

**Step 5:** Go to the **Language Fields** tab.  

**Step 6:** Here, you will need to modify the languages. To set English as the source language and Slovenian as the target language, you may need to delete the existing languages and re-add them in the desired order. Remember, the first language in the list will be your source language, and the second will be your target language.  

Please note that you cannot simply drag the languages to reorder them; you must remove and then re-add them. Make sure to keep track of the languages you remove to ensure you can add them back correctly.

If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, feel free to ask!

I'm using Multiterm 2024, SR1 and CU2  18.1.2.3594.

Indeed I see the order of the languages in the Termbases definition is such that BG is the first and Cs is second. But if I follow the steps and get to AI suggested **Step 6**, I can't delete existing languages as Termbase is not empty.  Completely understandable. 

 

If I combine the above, adding info that I  cannot simply drag the languages to reorder them, I'm encouraging myself to follow the suggestion fom Paul  to Kelly Edward ....    RE: Where can I find the "setting" file for source/target languages of TB? 

1. Export Termbase content
2. Create new Termbase based on the current one. 
3. Modify the language ordering to have it as needed.
4. Check all other fields and attributes didn't change
5. Import  content into new Termbase with now definition.
