Yes you can, just google "define: disregard".

Starting a search with "define:" has always searched for the word definition and still does. Apparently "disregard" has become a reserved word. Reserved words exist in all sorts of computer languages, but a non-programmer might find them odd. There are a few things you can't ask Alexa for the same reason, but with Alexa (or any voice input) I don't think you can specify a colon after a word - unless there's some documented way I don't know about.

Maybe you cant.

Define the word "disregard"

They must have fixed it because it googled to just find for me.

Note, I normally use Qwant.
