Attention Slava! :shock:

I just wanted to check the thread in which Mr. Micawber used the word willy-nilly. Although the Search Engine very easily found it, the word was no more highlighted (yellow), as it had been up until now. So, I had to look for it in the thread.

Hi Tom, the search engine highlights separate words only. "Willy-nilly" is hyphenated and that's why the search results are not marked yellow. You probably will agree that most words in English are spelled separately so those results will be highlighted.

Hope this answers your question.
