Search for Greek Prefix, or Suffix

I was in 2 Peter 2:1 about false prophets and teachers. The Greek is Pseudo*

How can I search for all words beginning with "Pseudo"

    I searched my favorite Greek NT for ψευδο*. Are you asking about everywhere that the Greek begins with words that we put into Latin characters as "pseudo"?

    lemma.g:ψευδo* I received 104 hits in the NASB95.

    It's funny, @Jack Caviness ; I get 20 results in 19 verses using the same query. That result aligns well with the query I put above. But I will also say I ran it again in a search window I had opened previously and got 0 results. But if I open a brand new search window, I get the results I expect. I don't want to get off topic for @Bob Diebel.

    Edit: For my issue, I was searching using ψευδo* to get no results. When it worked, I was using ψευδο*. The difference is the hex code for one was BF and the other was 6F. Sorry about the distraction.

    I have tried "lemma.g:=ψευδο*" in an English text, and "ψευδο*" in a Greek text.

    I get no results.

    Now "lemma.g:ψευδo*" in "NASB 2020" gave 20 results in 19 verses

    Went back and tried

    "lemma.g:ψευδo*" in "NASB 1995" gave 20 results in 19 verses

    Seems flacky to me, not consistent.

    @Bob Diebel , did you see my post above about whether I typed an omicron or a Latin "o" character? I didn't think it would make a difference, but in my simple search, it does. At least on the search I mentioned. I'm not sure when Logos can make that equivalence work or why it doesn't normally.

    Thanx, that does help. I saw the post, but did not know how to get "hex code for one was BF and the other was 6F".

    Interesting results from the rest of you. I repeated my search in UBS5 and NASB95. This time I got 20 results in 19 verses. Replaced omicron with o and still received 20 hits in 19 verses. When searching lemma g: Logos likely changed the o to omicron. Don't know what happened in that earlier search; guess I should have looked at the search results 🙄 Just call it a senior moment.
