I am willing to bet the City of London against a house-brick that the vast majority of people searching for 'ford' are not looking for a definition of the river crossing, but rather the motor vehicle company named after the man named after several other generations of men named after such a river crossing.
- Nursie 14y agoThere's a qualitative difference somewhere there. I'd still prefer the river crossing to come top, but recognise that's just me.
- Saavedro 14y agoIn both of these cases you can get google to do what you prefer by typing "define" in front. "define ford" shows a dictionary definition of ford before all results, "define stack overflow" shows a link to wikipedia before all results.
- Nursie 14y agoNot really, as all the results are then about the definition. Definitions, then popular sites, then whatever else, IMHO, would be quite useful. Of course with the imprecise and constantly moving nature of language this is not easy.
