When you do a word search, either by entering words at the word search screen or by highlighting a word in the text, first headings and subheadings (in bold type) are searched for exact matches. If no exact matches are found in the headings and subheadings, then the text is searched for exact matches.
If no exact matches are found, the headings are searched for inexact matches, such as inflections and syn­onyms. If no inexact matches are found in the headings, then the text is searched for them.
A word search stops as soon as matches are found at a level described
