Search dictionary headwords
Search for headwords containing:
Select a Search Option:	Exact match
	String searching

By default, headword results include all headwords containing the string you entered. Entering φέρω will return φέρω but also ἀναφέρω, διαφέρω, etc.
Use the ^ sign to match the beginning of words: ^φέρ will only return words starting in φέρ-, not, e.g., ἀναφέρω
Use the $ sign to match the end of words: έρω$ will only return words ending in -έρω, not, e.g., γέρων or κέρως

Search the full text for:	(e.g., by lot or τύχ*)
	Similar Word Search

Select a Search Option:	Single Term and Phrase Search (default) Proximity Searching in the same Sentence or in the same Paragraph

By default, full-text results include only words exactly matching the string you entered. Entering φέρω will only return φέρω
The asterisk is a wildcard character (ἔργ* retrieves any words starting in ἔργ-: ἔργα, ἔργανα, ἔργον, ἔργου, etc.).
'Similar word' search finds similar words if the word entered is longer than five characters. Your mileage may vary!

Click SEARCH (or hit Enter at anytime) to execute your Search; click CLEAR to clear the entire form and start over.

You will normally use the headword search and full-text search options separately; however, it is possible to search the text of large entries by entering the headword in the upper search box and another string in the lower search box. This restricts the full-text search to just one entry.
The search form does not allow for punctuation marks, but if you are looking, say, for all citations of Sophocles' Ajax in the lexicon, simply enter "S Aj" without punctuation.
