Searching for Words

 ➤

 Understanding Word Searches

When you search for words, the en-
cyclopedia searches first for
matches of the words in the titles of
articles.
If no matches are found in article
titles, it automatically searches for
matches in the articles themselves.
If no exact matches are found in ar-
ticles, the encyclopedia then
searches for synonyms and related
words.
Searches of more than one word
find matches regardless of the order
or proximity of the words. For ex-
ample, if you search for 

space

travel, you will find articles that have
the words 

travel and space in their

text or titles.
