Google, the giant search engine which has being operating a monopoly search engine market since all this while by relegating other search engines is not just at the top by chance but as result of its outstanding features and services that are incomparable to other search engines features and services.

Many people does not know about most of these
Google features and service which makes them not to be using them. This features have been of help and ease searchers to get the accurate result and someother features are for refreshments.
Now, take a look at the following services:

7 Wonderful Google Features You Should be Using

1. Google definitions
Google is providing the same great service that your dictionary is providing. You need not to be romancing your dictionary all the time to check for new and old words meaning, pronunciation, part of speech, word origin etc. by typing “define (word)” into the normal Google search bar, e.g. “define physics” and immediately you will see everything that you need to know about physics. I love this a lot, it has being my help whenever i need to check a dictionary, you too should try it out.

2. Google translations
Learning, checking and verifying what words stand for in other languages has been made easy with Google translations by mere typing of “translate (word) to (language)” in that same normal Google search bar, you will quickly know the translation of that word in the language you wish to. This covers meaning, languages and the pronunciation features of words in another language is all possible to be sure of how its being pronounce by clicking the small speaker icon that will be presented alongside with the word.

For example, you can search for the translation of house in French by just typing “translate house to
French” and you will see the translation.

3. Google Conversions. (AT)
If you want to convert one unit to another with accuracy, worry no more just head on to the Google
search page or bar and type like “convert (value) (unit) to (new unit you want)” e.g. “convert 10km to mi.” there will appear the result and the accurate conversion rate will be shown to you to see. you can
use it to convert currencies also.

This converter is ultimate and their values are being
updated regularly to meet the standard. This is what I am using to deal with international currencies… lolz.

4. Exclude search terms
Another special thing about Google’s algorithms is the ability to get the result of your request according to what you have in mind. Imagine, you want to list some websites or anything but you have known some of the results already, you can make use of this service to exclude those ones you’ve known without stress and they will give way for you to select the new ones you want to.

All you have to do is to add the minus (-) symbol after words you like to search for and then right the one you wish to exclude. e.g., you want to get the list of countries in Africa and you know Nigeria before, all you will have to do is to type “ Africa Countries – Nigeria” and you will be best satisfied with the result you are going to receive.

5. Google comparison search
Comparison of two things is made easy by Google to filter the result you will get. Google will make everything possible to ignore other relevant results and bring most relevant to your your desk when it
comes to comparison.

To compare two things like “Mother and Father“, all you will have to do is to type “Compare Mother and
Father” and you will glad to see the pages where the
exact comparisons were being fully discussed.
This is highly recommended for students.
