• Full text search works in TEXTS OF ARTICLES – Czech words can be in any form (e.g. evropská unie matches also evropské unie).
• You can enter multiple words in exact form if they form a phrase (e.g. evropská unie).

Logical operators can be used for searching in TEXTS OF ARTICLES:

a AND b   both a and b must be present in the
a OR b     a or b or both must be present in the text
