Full Word Translation (English) search should search by whole word

[tejbirsingh]

When I search with Full Word Translation (English), I would expect to see matches of that whole word.

Searching hem returns every result that includes them or any other word that has the string hem. I think it should only return results with the whole word itself.

I believe Full Word implies whole word matching, so I would expect results like this:

To Reproduce Version: web Select Full Word Translation (English) from the drop down search a word that can be a part of other words (hem, man, all etc.)

If this was a conscious choice, please ignore this.

Is this a BaniDB API issue @ManjotS @tarunsingh5

[ManjotS]

No, this is a feature.

For this FR we would need to implement a single word only search on api and then maybe have a checkbox on site that switches to it "Full word only" and also if its in quotes.

Or we could just advise use quotes and implement that within all existing search types. Please make api ticket.

hem should bring up all results like them. "hem" should only bring up results with hem, not them. Similar to how to Google works. Multiple words "their feet" should bring up results with those words in exact order. their feet should bring up results with those words anywhere in the results.

Aman, this is an API issue, not a web issue. I would classify quotes under operators. So this seems to already be fixed in Raj's branch.

Can I close this then @ManjotS ?

[ManjotS]

Yes. If it doesn't work as you expect, please open API tickets for specific bugs (check dev first)
