morph search returns surprising hits

Post by kenfhill84083 »

I don't know if this is a theWord bug or user bug...

I was trying to find imperative verbs in 1 Corinthians in TRi. The search term I used is m/V-??M*. It came back with 3 hits (verses 18, 28, 31 - see image). But when running similar morph searches in Logos and WORDsearch, in each I could only find 1 hit -- in verse 31.

Is this a bug or am I just doing it wrong? Thanks.

It looks to me that you need to use m/V-??M-*

Thanks for the tip. I should check the forums more often.
