Googling says: “No content found.”

That is unusual. Google will go to the ends of the earth (literally, foreign-language websites) to find a word which doesn’t exist in English.

At my end Google found tridaily on several dictionary or wordplay (e.g., Scrabble) websites, but quite scarcely in actual usage, and even more scarcely without a hyphen (tridaily vs. tri-daily).

@Beryllos

When I saw “tridaily,” I thought, “That makes sense!” Not recalling ever having seen the word in print, I clicked on the word you’d typed. When the three choices (copy, look up, share…) appeared, I clicked on “look up.” I stopped when I saw, “No content found,” because it has always been a dead-end when I’ve continued to search, and thought, “Well, no wonder I’ve never seen it! It doesn’t exist!”

However, after seeing what @BartholomewB and you have written in response to my post, I repeated the procedure, with the same result, but then clicked on “Search Web,” and found multiple entries for the word in question.

The moral here is that the “Look up” feature is unreliable. I thought that it was part of Google, but, apparently, it’s not? I don’t know. I use an iPhone and don’t know beans about it or the Internet.

I thank both you and BartholomewB for bringing this to my attention. 😇
