Hello, how to simplify the function if the query? (Table.AddColumn) too lazy to write up to 20 function attachments if

Souce= {"power querry","poweer query","pooower que1ry"},
#"Table.FromList" = Table.FromList(Souce, Splitter.SplitByNothing(), null, null, ExtraValues.Error),
#"Table.AddColumn" = Table.AddColumn(Table.FromList, "Group", each if Text.Contains([Column1],"power") then "power" else
if Text.Contains([Column1],"query") then "query" else
null)
