+ A dialog pops up showing you probably related words that you can use as

+ (such as
+\emph on

+\emph default
+ for
+\emph on

+\emph on

+ yields no results, while results are shown for the word form

+ Your best bet is to highlight only the relevant parts of such word (e.
+\begin_inset space \thinspace{}

+
+\emph on
+report
+\emph default
+ in
+\emph on
+report
