No, the glosses are pretty clear that the object is something you're looking for. For "search" as in "look through, examine" you'd use something like {'avwI' vInuD} "I examine the guard" or perhaps {'avwI'Daq nuHmey vInej} "I search for weapons in/on the guard".

I know we can say {'avwI' vInej} for "I search for the guard". Meaning "I'm trying to locate him".

But could the same sentence {'avwI' vInej} mean as well "I search the guard" ? Meaning, "I search him in order to see if he is armed" ?
