Upgrade Storagedictionary entry in MLA
The MLA Handbook 9th edition says a dictionary entry should look like this:
"Content, N. (4)." Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, 11th ed., MerriamWebster, 2003, p. 269.
… with the “N.” In italics, like the title of the dictionary.
Instead, Zotero gives me:
Dalzell, Tom, editor. ‘Zinger, N. (2; 4)’. The Routledge Dictionary of Modern American Slang and Unconventional English, Second edition, Routledge, 2018, p. 865.
… with only the title in italics.
Where can I enter the part of speech (N.) so as to have it in italics after the word “Zinger,” here?
Trying to find a variable I could enter in the extra field, perhaps, but have not found anythings in this direction.

Thanks to help on another issue, I was able to put N. in italics.
I just entered this into the field Content, N.
For dictionary entries where you do not need the author, you can just "omit author."
The only issue I have is that, in MLA, the "N." should only appear in the list of works cited and not in the in-text citation. I have no idea why, but I think that MY in-text citations will just have to include it.
I cannot see how to do it any other way, and really don't think it matters.
