- Searches actual surface text of any text resource
- Returns references to name
- Generally uses parsing algorithm not tagging (Match all word forms)
- Can disambiguate Proper noun vs. common noun (Match case)
- Can specify language and marks sensitivity (Match marks)

Data type
|
- <Person Abraham>
- person:Abraham
- <Place Ur (city)>
- Place:Ur (city)
- <Thing tent>
- thing:tent
- Searches tags in tagged resources
- Returns references to person
- Is disambiguated by definition

- <Lemma ~ lpi/syr/ܡܫܟܢܐ>
- <Lemma ~ lbs/la/tabernāculum>
- Searches tags in compatible morphology-tagged resources
- Returns references to any form of the lemma
- Lemmas disambiguated only in dictionary sense (indicated by a number)
- Does not need parsing algorithm

- <Sense = tent>
- Sense:tent
- Searches sense tags
- Returns reference to the sense regardless of lemma
- Sense disambiguated by definition

Note: the lemma list is not exhaustive. Lemma format falls into 3 categories:
- Logos morphology/dictionary/lexicon lemmas used by default because they are broadly used. Logos morphology is available for Hebrew, Aramaic, Greek, Latin
- Lemma divisions associated with a specific dictionary are especially popular with Strong’s fans. Certain lexicons other than Strongs also can accessed in a similar method.
- Lemma divisions associated with specific morphological coding are sometimes useful – Andersen-Forbes being one of the first and, therefore, well known.
Available morphological coding for morphology search.

One can use Verbum very effectively, ignoring all but the Louw-Nida datatype. For all others, the use of headwords will serve your purposes. However, because a number of resources refer to these datatype, one needs to be aware of what they refer to.
