@sgunhouse adding a space before the b doesn't work. Quoting, or just a leading quote is fine. Also b&m.

@jobe1980 you can customise keyboard shortcuts in Opera but it doesn't look like you can for the listed search engines. But you can do so with the similar feature in Vivaldi.
I did notice in the Opera settings that there was an option to use tab instead of space after the b. But when I tried that it didn't work, i.e., b + space still invoked Bing.

I have a custom search for IMDB using "i", so when I need to search for something that starts with "i", I just add a "g" before to manually indicate I want to use Google. For example, "g i want to break free". So in your case, just typing "g b and m" should do the trick.
I think in the past we were able to change these shortcuts or even delete them, but now I see they are static.
