If you cite a Google Search URL for an “interesting” or especially a new term, use the "npfr=1" query parameter to force Google to return results for your literal search, instead of auto-correcting it, either to a related older term, or potentially something new and popular in the future.

E.g. If I wanted to direct you to search results for the word "faschadenfreude“, I would share this link:

https://www.google.com/search?q=faschadenfreude&nfpr=1

Without the "nfpr" parameter, the query would have redirected to showing you results for merely "schadenfreude“.

Due to some amount of recency bias in search (and LLM) indices, news and other events can impact what words and phrases are these services redirect you to. Since new words and phrases can and will get more attention, there’s no way to predict if or when any search you link to will be redirected to something else in the future.

The only way to be sure a Google search results link in a blog post shows what you intend is to add the "&nfpr=1" URL query parameter to the link in your post.
