When i am creating new filter in Thunderbird 78.2.1 it is very convenient and easy to understand (well done). My filter is like this:

If match all of the following conditions: 1. contains phrase "word 1" in subject 2. does not contains phrase "ERROR" in body then delete mail

but now i want to add one more phrase into the condition 1. which is "word 2" and i do not know how / can not (i tried "word 1 OR word 2" ; "word 1;word 2" )

there are options: "match all of the following" "match any of the following" "match all messages"

if i create third rule for that second phrase "word 2" and select "match any of the following", then i think it can delete mail even if it does not contain ERROR. But i need to keep mail if it contains error + any of the two phrases. Btw. what is the option "match all messages" it seems very vague and Thunderbird fails to provide any hint in Filter Rules window.

Create two filters, one with word1 and the other with word2, just like your current filter. 'Match all messages' is useful when you want to apply a filter with no criteria, which is why the criteria are greyed out for that option.

Create two filters

Not always practical to have many filters, but should work. Thank you for answer. This is the feature request.
