By default, the Search module only supports exact keyword matching in content searches. You can modify this behavior by installing a language-specific stemming module for your language (such as <a href="http://drupal.org/project/porterstemmer">Porter Stemmer</a> for American English), which allows words such as walk, walking, and walked to be matched in the Search module. Another approach is to use a third-party search technology with stemming or partial word matching features built in, such as <a href="http://drupal.org/project/apachesolr">Apache Solr</a> or <a href="http://drupal.org/project/sphinx">Sphinx</a>. These and other <a href="@contrib-search">search-related contributed modules</a> can be downloaded by visiting Drupal.org.
