BUG: Trying to bring reason into another thread

Yes, I had an innocent motive but the results of the search are bizarre. I did a search on "reason with". The results come out with one line for reason and one line for with. However, the "reason" line leaves "with" out of the context making the sentence nonsensical. And the "with" line leaves "reason" out, making another nonsensical sentence.

This absurdity relates to two threads: (1) the God vs. Satan thread for obvious reasons and (2) the cross-reference thread which slips into design before you code tools.

    I thought the problem might be with "with" being a common word, so I did a similar search using "God loves".  I got similar results:

    Hi MJ. - fascinating find.

    I checked this with some other couplets and got the same result so its not just these particular words! 

    It also happens with triplets.

    I guess what's happening here is that the search is matching the phrase, then reporting against each word within it but excluding the rest of the phrase (in each case) from the previous and next contexts.

    The subject line has nothing to do with the nature of the bug. If it's not too late, I'd edit it.

    Hi,

    Just to chip in, the same issue/feature/bug exists with a Chinese search. (The first word is Holy, and second is Spirit)
