Hi, Berinda;
ReplyDeleteYou are getting a good sense of the boolean construction. One reminder, when you put a phrase in quotes that is how it will look for the words exactly in the articles, so number 1 is fine, you do want the phrase great depression but for number 3, you don't want a phrase of "federal and government" you probably just want a search string connected by AND, or "federal government" as a phrase.
