2. Suggested wordpairs: Just like words, you may select any of these to add them to your query.
3. Explore Button: Click the explore button when you've selected some good words, but want further suggestions to narrow your search even further. In this case, clicking "Explore" would suggest more keywords related to traveling in the Caribbean.
