Wordsmade up of other words completely or mostly unrelated to the meaning of the word they comprise. Compound words such as patchwork, townhouse, pathway, oversight etc., which, together, create the words meaning, don't qualify. For related words-within-words lists, see my Kangaroo Words and Kangaroo Words 2.

Because queries can be very complex and can use several different operators, there needs to be a way to evaluate expressions unambiguously. This is done through the use of operator precedence, which is a way of specifying which operators and expressions are evaluated first, second, and so on. In the list below, the precedence of the operators is from first to last.


A space is used to separate words or operators in a search query. In a simple query where operators are not used, spaces between words are treated as an implied "and" so that the search results will contain documents containing all of the words that have been entered.


Note: In certain cases, the search engine will automatically assume that two terms separated by a single space should be treated as a single phrase to increase the accuracy of results. This primarily occurs with proper names.


To search for only those documents that contain both the words Bill and Clinton, you can enter Bill Clinton into the Search Box and click the Search button. The search engine will look for both words in the document and return those documents where both words can be found anywhere in the document.


Note: Because a proximity expression is trying to find words (or phrases with quotes) that are located within a specified proximity of each other, using Boolean operators or multiple words without quotes in a proximity expression will result in a search query error. One way to make sure that you do not get search query errors is to always use parentheses around the proximity expression when creating search queries that use proximity operators. Examples of proximity expressions using quotes:


Parentheses are used to group words and expressions so that the result of evaluating the expression between the parentheses can be used as part of a more complex query. The use of parentheses is recommended to isolate expressions in your query from other expressions, especially when creating complex queries using proximity operators and field operators.


Field operators are operators that represent metadata fields. Using field operators tells the search engine to retrieve documents where the value of the metadata field is equal to the value given in the field operator expression. Searches with field operators are useful when you know the values of descriptive data (metadata) such as titles, sponsors, and dates.


Enter your letters. Click the Get Words button. Find all words contained in the letters that you specify.Get words within a word, or use this as a Scrabble (or words with Friends) word finder tool.This word tool will find all words containing only these letters (if the word is in the word list). The resulting words will have some or all of the letters, and only these letters. This search is sensitive to the frequency of occurrence of letters in the requested set. For example, if you specify 2 e's in your request, the resulting words will have, at most, 2 e's. In general, the more letters you specify, the more words you will get using these letters. If you want more words in the results list, perform this search on the mammoth word list. If you find yourself entering a letter set in the contains only search box, and doing repeated searches, each time altering only a single letter, perhaps the contains only, plus one blank tile search, would work better for you. This is the uncensored list. The words are good, bad, and downright ugly. If this offends you, use the censored version of the enable list.


This search will find all words using these letters, and only these letters, in our enable uncensored word list of 171,298 words. Use the buttons below the word list to sort the words by length, and then reverse the list to place the longest words first.


Enter the letters on your scrabble rack and the letter on the Scrabble board that you are trying to play off of. More words will result from more letters, but too many letters might produce too many words and obscure your findings.

To be clear, I'm not asking about cases where the words are clearly etymologically linked. Like "fire" and "firefighter" or "link" and "linkage". The confusion arises in cases where the words aren't clearly related, but one still entirely contains the other in an unrelated way.


England and island were originally compound words, but in this century, island is a valid clue for ENGLAND. Even land is a valid clue for ENGLAND. And anybody who says you can't say sparrow when ROW is on the table is just trying to cause trouble.


The examples you give are not good examples, because they are, in fact, etymologically related. As GendoIkari says, the rules cite "sparrow" and "row" as an example of two unrelated words. The rules say that "row" being on the table does not bar "sparrow" from being used. However, given that the rules say that clues must relate to the meaning, rather than letters of a word, the fact that "sparrow" and "row" are unrelated means that "sparrow" can't be used as a clue for "row".


but keep in mind that this matches a sequence of characters, not necessarily a whole word - for example, 'word' in 'swordsmith' is True. If you only want to match whole words, you ought to use regular expressions:


If matching a sequence of characters is not sufficient and you need to match whole words, here is a simple function that gets the job done. It basically appends spaces where necessary and searches for that in the string:


You can simply split text into list of words. Use split(separator, num) method for that. It returns a list of all the words in the string, using separator as the separator. If separator is unspecified it splits on all whitespace (optionally you can limit the number of splits to num).


One of the solutions is to put a space at the beginning and end of the test word. This fails if the word is at the beginning or end of a sentence or is next to any punctuation. My solution is to write a function that replaces any punctuation in the test string with spaces, and add a space to the beginning and end or the test string and test word, then return the number of occurrences. This is a simple solution that removes the need for any complex regex expression.


Once, one of my clients chose the word 'pedestrian'. We made an amazing 122 words from it! We invited staff and management to join us and we played for well over an hour. For many days afterward, we had staff coming up with extra words.


I just want to thank you so very much for a wonderful website. Love, Love, LOVE IT! There are soo many great ideas for games that many of them are on my calendar. Who would of thought that the greatest people with the best ideas are on this website. I'm so grateful to have stumbled upon it.


To require that the terms be found in the specified order, you would change the example proximity term to NEAR((John, Smith),2, TRUE). This searches for "John" within two terms of "Smith" but only when "John" precedes "Smith". In a language that reads from left to right, such as English, an example of a string that matches is "John Jacob Smith".


Note that for a language that reads from right to left, such as Arabic or Hebrew, the Full-Text Engine applies the specified terms in reverse order. Also, Object Explorer in SQL Server Management Studio automatically reverses the display order of words specified in right-to-left languages.


The following example searches the Production.Document table of the AdventureWorks sample database for all document summaries that contain the word "reflector" in the same document as the word "bracket".


All proximity searches always look for only non-overlapping occurrences. Overlapping occurrences of search terms never qualify as matches. For example, consider the following proximity term, which searches "A" and "AA" in this order with a maximum distance of two terms:


You can specify terms that overlap, for example, NEAR("mountain bike", "bike trails") or (NEAR(comfort*, comfortable), 5). Specifying a overlapping terms increases the complexity of the query by increasing the possible match permutations. If you specify a large number of such overlapping terms, the query can run out of resources and fail. If this occurs, simplify the query and try again.


NEAR (regardless of whether a maximum distance is specified) indicates the logical distance between terms, rather than the absolute distance between them. For example, terms within different phrases or sentences within a paragraph are treated as farther apart than terms in the same phrase or sentence, regardless of their actual proximity, on the assumption that they are less related. Likewise, terms in different paragraphs are treated as being even farther apart. If a match spans the end of a sentence, paragraph, or chapter, the gap used for ranking a document is increased by 8, 128, or 1024, respectively.


When NEAR is used in the CONTAINSTABLE function, the number of hits in a document relative to its length as well as the distance between the first and last search terms in each of the hits affects the ranking of each document. For a generic proximity term, if the matched search terms are >50 logical terms apart, the rank returned on a document is 0. For a custom proximity term that does not specify an integer as the maximum distance, a document that contains only hits whose gap is >100 logical terms will receive a ranking of 0. For more information about ranking of custom proximity searches, see Limit Search Results with RANK.
