Operator | Description | Example |
---|---|---|
+ | +goats +cows | Must have the whole words 'goats' and 'cows' |
- | goats -cows | Must have the whole word 'goats' but must not have the whole word 'cows' |
| | goats | cows | May have either whole words 'goats' or 'cows' |
" | "goats cows" | Must have the exact string 'goats cows' |
* | goat* | Must have any words that contain 'goat' like 'goats' or 'goatee' |
( ) | (birds) -(goats | cows) | Must have the whole word 'birds' but must not have either whole word 'goats' or 'cows' |
Search terms use the AND operator by default so '+goats +cows' is the same as 'goats cows' |
