If Google doesn't know a word you type it will ask you, "Did you mean ...?"
You can click that word if it is right. Then it will search for it.

If there are two ways to spell the word, try the American way first to get more hits.
Try the Canadian or English way next to get even more hits.
Eg. Type color wheel first. Then try colour wheel

Type "Martin Luther King" or "Chronicles of Narnia"
