BASIC SEARCH
The basic search is as simple as a piece of cake:
1. Use the radio buttons in the search box to select search base (Ukraine,
Kharkov, Abroad). The default is Ukraine base;
2. Type your keyword(s) in the search box;
3. Press Enter (the Search&Find button to start your search).
USUAL SEARCH
As a rule, the query consists of one or more words, for example:
quick
search of information
After this kind of query you will recieve the documents where all the
words which occur in the query will be found. The exceptions are: conjunctions,
prepositions, interjections etc. You cannot include these words into query.
They will be ignored (look through the list of stop
words). For example, according to our query:
quick
search of information
all the documents, that include the words "quick", "search"
and "information" will be found. It is not important were the
words found and what grammar form they have in the documents (for a query
in the Russian and Ukrainian languages). The word "of" is a
preposition and will be ignored. So, the mentioned query can be written
as:
Information quick
search
or
Search quick information
The result of the search will be the same as in the first case.
Pay attention to the following property of the search engine while searching
in Russian or Ukrainian: independently from grammar form of your words
in the query it will be found in the documents in all presented forms.
For example:
child went (ребенок
шел (Rus), дитина йшла(Ukr))
children go (дети идут (Rus), діти йдуть(Ukr)) will be found among all
the other documents. Form recognition works only for common words of the
Russian and Ukrainian languages. As for some specific words, terms, neologisms
it will not work.

ADVANCED SEARCH
You can create specific relationships among keywords or phrases using
(brackets), OR, NOT, AND.
| Operators |
Synonyms |
Description |
| AND |
Rus: И
Ukr: ТА
&
+
|
Logic AND is implied and
it can be omitted. It means that the query
information system is equivalents to query information
AND system. According to these queries the documents that include
both of the words will be found.
AND operator defines the field
of your search. |
| OR |
Rus: ИЛИ
Ukr: АБО
| |
Logic OR allows to search
the the documents, that include even one of the words from the query.
So, according to the query information OR system
all the documents including any of the mentioned words or both ones
will be found.
OR operator broadens
the field of your search. |
| NOT |
Rus/Ukr: НЕ
- |
Logic NOT narrows the search
by the documents, that do not include the words mentioned after the
operator. For example, according to the query drink
NOT coffee the documents will be found that include the word
"drink", but exclude the word "coffee".
NOT operator narrows
the field of your search. |
|
( )
|
|
Brackets set the action order of logic operators.
For example, you introduce the query quick
OR quality search. According to such a query you will
receive the documents, that include either the word "quick",
or the word "quality" and "search"
(because operator AND is implied
and acts first. And if you write the query (quick
OR quality) search, you will receive the documents, where
the words "quick" and "search",
or "quality" and "search" are
present. |
A second operators group allows to set distance between keywords.
| Operators |
Synonyms |
Description
|
| " " |
|
Inverted commas marks permit to find the combination
of words, mentioned in them, or very close to them. The last reservation
is fixed together with two circumstances. First, stop
words (prepositions, conjunctions, etc) in quotation marks are
ignored as in a simple query. Second, the grammar form of the words
is not fixed by such a quotation marks. For example, according to
the query "weather in the Crimea"
the document, that include further combinations of words "weather
and Crimea", "weather Crimea" " etc. will be found. |
| w2(...)
|
Rus: сл2(...)
Ukr: с2(...)
[2,...] |
Distance limit in words (2 is mentioned as example).
If you want the words mentioned by you to meet, for example within
the limits of 5 words, you should write: w5
(sun wind water). After this, the documents in which between
"sun", "wind" and "water" there is fewer
than 2 other words (it means, that the whole number of words in fragment
is fewer than 5) will be found. The order of the words is not important. |
| s2(...) | Rus: пp2(...)
Ukr: реч2(...)
{2,...} |
Distance limitation in sentences (2 is mentioned as
an example). If you want to require, that the words mentioned by you
to meet in the range of 1 sentence, you should write s1(sun
wind water). |
Another widespread case -- search by URL of servers .
| Operator | Synonyms |
Description |
| url= |
url: |
Search limitation by one or several servers,
or even by part of a server. Here are some examples:
Example 1. Query:
url=www.kharkiv.com
Due to this query all the documents, indexed by the server will be
given out. In this case the document will be given out accidentally.
Example 2. Query:
url=www.kharkiv.com & references &
information
Due to this query all the documents of www.kharkiv.com server that
include word "references" and "information" will
be shown.
Example 3. Query:
url=www.kharkiv.com/assistance/*
Due to this query all the documents, indexed by META
on www.kharkiv.com server in directory "assistance" and
its subdirectories will be given out.
Example 4. Query:
url=*.kharkiv.com
Due to this query all the documents, indexed by search engine on servers
kharkiv.com, users.kharkiv.com, etc. will be given out. Such a queries
can be worked out quite for a long time. You should not give query
as *.ua, because hundreds of thousand documents will not provide you
with necessary information and system can abort returning you the
results of the search. |
Besides mentioned above you can use specialized operators -- truncating
and normal form.
| Operators |
Synonym |
Description |
| * |
|
Truncation operator. Asterisk in the end of the word
replaces (substitute) any number of any letters. So, due to the query
new*, inspite of "news" all the documents, that include
words "newscast", "newspaper", "newsprint"
and other begining with "new" will be found. |
| ! |
|
Operator of normal form (only for Russian and Ukrainian
search). Sometimes some forms of different words are equal in spelling.
For example, the word "лада" (lada) - is normal form of
the noun of feminine gender - in genitive case of the word "лад"
(lad). In order to remove such an ambiguity you can place an exclamation
mark (!) before the word in the query. By this you underline, that
is the normal form, and you cut off some part of unnecessary forms
of the words and narrow the result of the search. So, due to the query
!лад (!lad) word-form ладой (ladoj) will not be found out because
only the noun of feminine gender лада (lada) has it. |

SEARCH WITH PARAMETERS
Unlike the operators of advanced search, that determinate relations between
keywords, the search with parameters allows to limit the search area in
the time of creating and a few of documents fields as well.
Operator for time limitation:
| Operator |
Synonyms |
Description
|
| date= |
Rus: дата:
Ukr: дата=
date: |
This operator can narrow the search only by the documents,
that are in the given date interval. Here are some examples:
Example 1. Query:
Ukraine date=01/01/99-01/02/99
Due to this query all the documents, that include the word "Ukraine"
and are dated from 01/01/99 to 01/02/99 will be given out.
Example 2. Query:
date=01/01/99 Ukraine
Due to this query all the documents, that include
the word "Ukraine", and have the date 01/01/99 will be given
out.
Example 2. Query:
data:<01/02/99 Ukraine
or
data:-01/02/99 Ukraine
Due to this query all the documents, that include the word "Ukraine",
and have the date not later than 01/02/99 will be given out.
