|||
|
1. Search for the first part of a word only: |
|||
| Instead of | search for | ||
| caregiving | care | ||
| sarvicaya | sarvi | ||
| thumbscroo | thum | ||
| REASON: By design, the system will find all words beginning with the search phrase. Thus your chance of finding the word you look for, even if the word is not written correctly, increases when you shorten the input. | |||
2. If you want to search for dictionary entries which contain the search phrase, not only for words beginning with that phrase: |
|||
| Instead of | . | search for | |
| form | %form | ||
| level | %level | ||
3. If you want to search for the exact word, not for words beginning with that phrase: |
|||
| Instead of | . | search for | |
| rain | rain# | ||
| fort | fort# | ||
4. Always search for one word only: |
|||
| Instead of | . | search for | |
| It is located at | located | ||
| Good+morning! | morning | ||
| a cat | cat | ||
| as well as | well | ||
| maid servant | servant | ||
| REASON: In the current version, only single search phrases are processed. In case you look for translations of combined phrases, choose one of the main words. | |||
