Punctuation internal to the word is normally recognized. Note that the selection menu may not show the option. An example of a hyphenated word.
Punctuation is not recognized as such in a Search, and quasi=private will produce the same result as quasi-private. The words are indexed separately, so "quasi private" will also capture the phrase, and quasi and private will match the respective words.
An example of a possessive marker:
This is the exception to the above, and God's is recognised as a single word. If you want to search for implied plural like god(s), try god-s!
Also note that “present” in “present-day” is treated as a match.
(repeated twice)This belongs with my comment on quasi above.
Partial words are not matches. [Note, however, the treatment of hyphenated words.]
Hyphenated words are treated as separate whole words (as above with quasi and private). They are not partial words.

([match exact] "quasi private") OR ([match all] quasi-private) OR "quasi private"
Currently two search terms have equivalent implementation:
- ([match exact] "quasi private")
- ([match all] quasi-private)
Technically first search term finding results is a Bug. Mark Sensitivity [match exact] OR [match all] should match exactly what was typed so the space should have been included in search, resulting in nothing found in my Logos library. Search quasi BEFORE 1 WORD private finds quasi-private and quasi-privately while not finding phrase quasi private that has a space between the words.
Color highlighting shows phrase "quasi private" with match all word forms checked found quasi-privately
Unless match all word forms is specified, a text search will show only the form provided by the text. Example: “church” does not select “church’s” as indicated by the absence of a highlight.
With match all word forms checked and match case unchecked, search for churchs finds
- Church
- church
- Churches
- churches
- Church's
- church's
([match all] Church's) OR ([match all] church's) => finds possessive form. Mark sensitivity [match all] OR [match exact] matches Case.
Punctuation at the end of a word is ignored
Mark sensitivity [match all] OR [match exact] also ignores punctuation at the end of a word so cannot find Jesus' nor Jesus. (without finding Jesus too).

The matching information belongs to Verbum 9 Tip 7r: Basic search terms part 4 - Faithlife Forums (logos.com) rather than on this post.
