A simple example of a dork that does rely on an operator might be:

site:tacticaltech.org filetype:pdf
This googleDork will search https://www.sophiainstitute.com for all PDF files
hosted under that domain name.

Another example might look something like this:

inurl:exposing inbody:invisible
If the search term contains multiple words, they should be surrounded by quotation
marks:

intext:exposing intitle:�the invisible�

Dorks can also be paired with a general search term. For example:

exposing feed:rss
