What would be the correct way to do a search to match an exact phrase?

Place the desired search phrase within double quotation marks. This forces most search engines to look for matches of that exact character sequence. However some search engines may still show you a list of close matches following the exact ones. Do keep in mind the limitations of an exact search. A major one is that variations in tense, number, phrasing, or spelling won't be found, so you will need to do multiple or joined searches to find everything. For example: * A search for "presidential campaigns" will not find "presidential campaign". * A search for "Mister Ed" will not find "Mr. Ed". * A search for "kicked the bucket" will not find "kick the bucket". * A search for "downs syndrome" won't find the correctly-spelled term "Down syndrome". You can find multiple Wordings within a single search by combining the phrases with OR. For example, to find both down syndrome spellings, you can use this as your search string: * "down syndrome" OR "downs syndrome"
