Internet Search Question

I believe there is syntax I can sometimes use to clarify my "searches." If I say "down vest," I get results where the word "down" is present, and results where the word "vest" is present......but maybe I don't want all that. Maybe I only want results where the entire phrase "down vest" is present. How can I do that.......and do most "search" engines recognize the syntax conventions?
