Stop Words

Too much has been made of stop words. They often get confused with poison words. Contrary to what some believe, stop words are simply common words that we use in everyday language to connect thoughts and create common gramatical relationships. Most Search Engines do not consider these extremely common words in order to save disk space or to speed up search results. These filtered words are known as 'Stop Words'.
