searchMeaningsfunction

The words already loaded whose English meaning holds some words, the whole word at a time (water is a gloss with the word water in it, watermelon is not), the ones whose first gloss is exactly it first, then those with another gloss that is, then the commonest. It reads what is in words and fetches nothing: for a table of common words, or words from loadWords. to, the, a and the other words every gloss has are left out of the search, so walk finds "to walk".
