Pacifico/Pacifca

Question

When I type in the word pacifica in the dictionary, there is an active discussion for that word (on the bottom of the page). When I type in pacifico there is not active discussion for this word.
Can you explain to me why? Any information to help me will be gratefully appreciated.

Answer 1

This is quite true; the search engine on this site is not very forgiving (or, we could say, it's rather precise). If you search for alli (no accent) you pull up a different set of discussions than if you search for allí (with accent). This is good if the original post-ers typed correctly, not so good if they didn't . . .

Er, isn't it just because the word pacífica (note accent) appears in that discussion, but not the word pacífico?
