table  
id | word

SELECT id FROM table WHERE 
word = "hello" OR 
word = "ello" OR 
word = "llo" OR 
word = "lo" OR 
word = "o"

I need to get only first id that is found. If not first – then second. If not second – then third ….
Is it possible to get only first OR that is in the database, without checking all of them?
