in my english-dutch dictionary it's spelled like 'rhododendron'
is rhododendrun americain-english?
happens lots of times that spelling from ss doesn't recognize some words that are good english according to my dictionary, like 'cosy' for instance |

opposite problem:
rapid and rapids return the exact same results, but have completely different meanings. |

"http" and "https" are not the same thing - the S stands for secure. |

I'm totally green here, but when I search for something, I use wildcards to find variations on words. It seems to me that if the system would let me search for Play* or road* or apple*, it would eliminate much of this problem? But then, I'm a brand-new newbie. ?? |
