A Search in Logos5 gives back wrong results

Thomas Ehlert

Searching

lemma:יצא.1@V*, lemma:שׂמחה@n*

as a morph search in Logos 5 gives 49 results but they did'nt fit the words I was searching for.

What is my mistake?

My search question is: Are there other verses as in Isa 55,12, where יצא and שׂמחה

are together?

Hi Thomas - and welcome to the forums

lemma:יצא.1@V*, lemma:שׂמחה@n*

as a morph search in Logos 5 gives 49 results but they did'nt fit the words I was searching for.

When I copy your search string and try and execute it I get no results at all!

What is my mistake?

I think the problem is the "comma" which I think you are using to denote "AND". The key here is the note in the article on Search (http://wiki.logos.com/Search_HELP)

2. (Logical) OR, AND, ANDNOT

eg. Jesus OR Lord; Jesus AND Lord; Jesus ANDNOT Lord

Note that substituting characters (comma, space, dash) may give incorrect results especially in Morph Search eg. @N @V works for AND, but @N, @V does not work and you must use @N OR @V.

Try removing the comma or replacing it with AND. When I do that I get

Hope this helps

Thanks so much for your help.

I read somehwere that you could narrow searches in Logos by comma, but I overlooked the article you quoted.

Thanks once again

Found two more verses. Learned WIVU morphology is used in one Bible while older LLS morphology is used in three Bibles.

For searching, used a combination of AND plus OR with parenthetical grouping:

(<Lemma = lbs/he/יצא> AND <Lemma = lbs/he/שִׂמְחָה>) OR (<Lemma = wivu/he/יצא> AND <Lemma = wivu/he/שִׂמְחָה>) OR (<Lemma = lls/he/יצא> AND <Lemma = lls/he/שִׂמְחָה>)

Keep Smiling [:)]
