Hi,

Can anyone please tell me if there is an easy way to find a list of words that contain other certain words? In this instance I want to know all of the words that contain 'ratio', for example, "inspiRATIOn".

Thanks a lot for any help.
Silen

This is the more general case of the question you posted above. Same answer:

Goto http://www.m-w.com

Type *rati* into the dictionary box

Hit enter and wait about 3-5 seconds

At http://onelook.com/ you can do a similar "wildcard search", using asterisks.
