Gmail Finds Similar Words and Spelling Mistakes
Gmail has constantly improved its search feature in the past few months. After adding spell checking, suggestions, searching inside attachments, Gmail **w matches similar words that have the same root (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stemming). You can find a message even if you don't remember the exact words and that's pretty helpful.
**w you can search for [cat] and find messages that include the word [cats], search for [start] and find messages that only include [starting], search for [usable] and match [usability], search for [colour] and match [color], [coloured], [colours], [multicolor] and more.

Gmail also finds spelling mistakes like "clours" instead of "colours".

Gmail's search feature is less sophisticated than Google Search, so Gmail won't find sy**nyms and acronyms. You won't find messages that include "New York" when you search for [NY] or messages that include "tv" when you search for [television], at least **t yet.
To prevent Gmail from finding related matches, use the + operator. For example, search for [+usable] and Gmail will ** longer return messages that only include "usability".https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/18157064-3854159297625419245?l=googlesystem.blogspot.com
