Perhaps you should try some spelling variations:
"descriptive plates" » "descriptive poem", "descriptive data"
"descriptions plate" » "descriptions places", "descriptions state", "descriptions phase"
"descriptive phase" » "descriptive case", "descriptions phase", "descriptive clause"

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: (((("descriptive phase") OR ("descriptive plates"))) OR ("descriptions plate")).
• The words AND, OR and NOT may confuse the search; try adding quotes: "((((\"descriptive phase\") OR (\"descriptive plates\"))) or (\"descriptions plate\"))".
• Removing quotes may allow a broader search: (((( descriptive phase ) OR ( descriptive plates ))) or ( descriptions plate )).
• Adding a wildcard symbol may retrieve word variants: (((("descriptive phase") OR ("descriptive plates"))) or ("descriptions plate"))*.
