Using like predicate

Hi,
i want to search record in a table where a varchar column is equal to
a word or this word with the letter 's' or this word with the letter
'e'.
Today, i've this query :

select * From Table Where Column = 'Word' or Column like 'Word[es]'

Have you tried,
select * from Table where column like 'Word%'

This will select any record where the column starts with Word and anything
after that.
