You might find it easier to use the Advanced Search (binoculars to left of search bar) - saves having to remember the column names, and you don't need to find the tilde key (~)
Basically you put
\b (boundary marker) at the start and end of the
whole word(s) you want match
You get to see the resultant search term in the search bar when you hit OK - its a good way to learn
The example in the attachment is of course silly, but maybe not if you changed it to
(title:"~\bsyllabub\b") or (author:"~\bBeeton\b") or (comments:"~\bdinner party\b and "fish"")
