=====Powerful & Specialized Functions=====
▶ Easier Search with 'Multi Search' ◀
• When you enter a
word to search, relevant sentence idioms and phrasal verbs are searched for and spelling is checked automatically.
• Multiple types of searches are available in a single search window without the need to select a search mode.
▶ Search Features ◀
• Wildcard search: enter “?” or “*” in place of a letter when you are unsure of the spelling
(e.g., “man*ver” retrieves the word “maneuver”).
• Search not only for words, but for phrases or examples.
•
The spell check function corrects typos - if you are unsure of the spelling or mis-type a word, a list of similar words
is offered.
• Search for similar words: e.g. clicking on “adding” in an entry yields a list of similar and
derivative words: “addition”, “additional”, “additive”, “addition reaction”.
• The search results are listed in
real-time when you enter a keyword.
• Links to Google so that you can search for more information on a particular
word.
