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

Thanks for bringing that to my attention. It seems I spelled it correctly everywhere but here!

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. ??
