Perhaps you should try some spelling variations:
swash » slash, smash, awash
swath » swat, spath
sweat » swept
sweet » sheet
spate » spaten, space, spite
spater » spatenr, spacer, spiter
-plate" » -plates"

Try widening your search to All Fields.

You may be able to get more results by adjusting your search query.

• If you are trying to use Boolean operators, they must be ALL CAPS: "(swash OR ((swath OR (sweat OR sweet)) OR (spate OR spater)))(-plate" or -place").
• The words AND, OR and NOT may confuse the search; try adding quotes: "\"(swash or ((swath or (sweat or sweet)) or (spate OR spater)))(-plate\" or -place\")".
• Removing quotes may allow a broader search: (swash or ((swath or (sweat or sweet)) or (spate OR spater)))(-plate or -place ).
• Adding a wildcard symbol may retrieve word variants: "(swash or ((swath or (sweat or sweet)) or (spate OR spater)))(-plate" or -place")*.
