A number of keywords, called throwaway connectives, may be included anywhere in a query to make it more like a natural-language sentence. Throwaway connectives do not change the meaning of the INFO/ACCESS query and they do not affect the appearance or content of the resulting report.
The table below lists all of the throwaway connectives. Users may, of course, add their own throwaway connectives to the Master Dictionary.
