Doing a search
I wasn't to search the word "saviour"
But I don't want to limit it to just that word
I want all variations of the word.
How to I use search for this?
I have logos max an L10 full features

Or even a random word
Say... Sky... Or house

Search Panel Options – Verbum Support
see Match all forms option. Note not all languages support stemming which is the process behind this when texts are tagged by lemma.

That is a simple lemma search in morphologically tagged texts.

I've been using logos for over six months now I have invested time and effort into learning
I don't mean to be a novice but would you tell me how to do what you just said because I'm typing it doesn't seem to do what I'm looking for

I'm not sure which part of MJ's advice you are referring to - hopefully these examples will help a bit
If I do a Bible search for the word save I get results for verses containing that word
But if I enable forms matching - click the icon at the top right - I get results containing different forms of that word
Does this help at all?
And I don't understand your question above about how this relates to Greek - please clarify

Thank you I will give it a go now
What I meant by the Greek is do I need to find the word I want to search for in English just suppose "Heaven"
Do I need to find out in the Greek or Hebrew depending which one it is and do a search on the Hebrew or Greek word of that and then that in itself finds the variations of that word.
I suppose I kinda answered my question
But that seems to be a little hard.
What you searched for seems right if I do that with the word heaven.. will it show sky space atmosphere...
But it helps I will try it.
Does the morph function just find this every variation of that word?
I tried typing the word but I didn't get anything else but the same word I searched for no variations

Sorry - I thought you were looking for variations on a word not looking for different words with similar or related meaning
There are some techniques that could help (looking at Louw-Nida searches in the New Testament for example - see https://support.logos.com/hc/en-us/articles/360035612451-Semantic-Domains#louw-nida for some context on this)
But, overall, I can't think of any way of doing what I think you are asking for because I'm not sure how you are grouping things together - and I don't think the software groups them that way either.
For example, you seem to be suggesting that words like heaven, sky and space are similar / related - but I would see them as very different things.

Okay, you are asking multiple questions with different answers
The translation wheels in an English word Bible Word Study guide will give you the various words in Greek and Hebrew that are translated by the English word.
Explore the Bible sense lexicon for possibilities for near synonyms which I think is what you mean by "every variation of that word"
Graham's suggestion of using semantic domains is also a solid approach.

I am actually asking multiple questions and I didn't even know it to be honest. I'm just trying to get my head around it a bit. I love love but it's still new to me.
With your help I was able to do the searchs I wanted.
Thanks for being patient
God bless

Your right I am asking questions all over the place. I guess one lead to another but what I wanted to do is done now.
The wheels are actually perfect too
There is another way to do what I need
Thanks again
Your very kind to reply
🙏
