The additional parameter |brackets=on may be used to surround a quotation with brackets. This indicates that the quotation either contains a mere mention of a term (for example, "some people find the word manoeuvre hard to spell") rather than an actual use of it (for example, "we need to manoeuvre carefully to avoid causing upset"), or does not provide an actual instance of a term but provides information about related terms.
If the passage is tagged by data field lang as being in Sanskrit, the description of the source is slightly different, e.g.:
