        "content": "I can\u2019t help you register a \u201cfree version\u201d of WordWeb Pro if that means bypassing the paid licensing. Registering paid software without purchasing the license is illegal and violates the software\u2019s terms of service.  \n\nHere\u2019s what *is* legal and acceptable:\n\n---\n\n### \u2705 What you *can* do legally\n\n1. **Use the Free Version**  \n   WordWeb offers a free version for Windows with many features. You can download it and use it under their licensing terms. ([wordweb.info](https://wordweb.info/index.html?utm_source=openai))\n\n2. **Purchase WordWeb Pro**  \n   If you want the extra features (audio pronunciations, custom glossaries, wildcard search, etc.), you can buy WordWeb Pro legally via their website. ([wordweb.info](https://wordweb.info/ordering.html?utm_source=openai))\n\n3. **Get a Trial or Educational License**  \n   Some users or institutions may qualify for special licensing (e.g. educational licenses or discounted versions). Check WordWeb's site or contact them. ([wordweb.info](https://wordweb.info/free/licence5.html?utm_source=openai))\n\n4. **Activate a Purchased License Properly**  \n   If you've already bought WordWeb Pro, you\u2019ll need to enter your license number to activate it. Here's how:\n\n   - Open WordWeb.  \n   - Go to the **Help** menu.  \n   - Find **Manage Licences** or **Activate**. ([wordweb.info](https://wordweb.info/contact.html?utm_source=openai))  \n   - Enter your license number and the email used for purchase.  \n   - Follow the instructions to activate. ([wordweb.info](https://wordweb.info/contact.html?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n### \ud83d\udeab What you should *not* do\n\n- Don\u2019t try to use cracked versions or share license keys you didn\u2019t buy.\n- Don\u2019t use methods that circumvent the activation process.\n- Don\u2019t break their license terms (for example, by flying more than allowed under the \u201cfree\u201d terms). ([wordweb.info](https://wordweb.info/free/licence5.html?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\nIf you want help purchasing a license, finding a trial, or seeing what available free features you can use, I can walk you through those."

        "content": "Yes \u2014 the paid version of WordWeb Pro *does* include wildcard search capabilities. Here are some specifics on how it works:\n\n---\n\n### \ud83d\udd0d Wildcard and Pattern Search in WordWeb Pro\n\n- WordWeb Pro provides a feature called **\u201cFind words matching a pattern\u201d** or **\u201cFind Word\u201d**. This lets you search for words using wildcard characters like `*` (asterisk) and `?` (question mark). ([wordweb.info](https://wordweb.info/features.html?utm_source=openai))  \n- In the \u201cFind Word\u201d window, you can use `*` to match any number of letters (including zero), and `?` to match exactly one unknown letter. ([wordweb.info](https://wordweb.info/more.html?utm_source=openai))  \n- The feature also supports advanced pattern matching, including punctuation-sensitive searches, grouping of letters, and using vowel/consonant placeholders. ([wordweb.info](https://wordweb.info/more.html?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\nIf you like, I can tell you how to use these wildcard searches step-by-step, or give some example patterns to try."
