Understanding Searches
When you search for words, the ency-
clopedia searches first for matches of
the words in the titles of articles. If no
matches are found in titles, it automati-
cally searches for matches in the
articles themselves. If no exact
matches are found in articles, the en-
cyclopedia 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 example, if
you search for
space travel
, you will find
matches that have the words
travel
and
space
in the text of their articles.
➤
Expanding Your Searches
To find more matches, press
MORE
(the red key) up to three times after
entering your word search. When you
press
MORE
(red), your word search
expands to include matches in articles
or synonyms and related words, if
they weren’t already found.
➤
If You Misspell a Word
If you enter a misspelled search
word, a list of corrections appears
automatically. Highlight a correction
and press
ENTER
to search for it.

✻

and press

✽

ENTER
.

press
ENTER
