Edmundo T. Mendiola writes "We are using CONTAINS() predicate. CONTAINS supports prefix terms which means you can search a word/phrase by typing in the first few characters (as in '"phrase*"' or '"phra*"').

Can CONTAINS support search for suffix terms and portions in the middle of a word (so that "rase" or "hras" still match "phrase")? Just like how the LIKE operator supports an entry LIKE '%rase%' OR LIKE '%hras%'."
