How can I adjust the search bar to search within a specific website?

I used to use Chrome (still miss it a little bit), but Firefox has continually grown on me.

One feature I do miss from Chrome being able to search within a specific website from the search bar. For example, I was able to type in amazon.com, then pressing tab, and type in a specific search term, such as "The Terminator." When I pressed enter after typing "The Terminator," Chrome would automatically take me to Amazon's search results for "The Terminator."

And it wouldn't just be Amazon either; pretty much any site that had a searchable database, Chrome would be capable of utilizing this feature. Is there any way to replicate that in Firefox?

hello crachor, probably keyword search can offer you a similar functionality in firefox: How to search IMDB, Wikipedia and more from the address bar

It's still not exactly the same, but it's the closest I think Firefox can do, thanks!

It is not exactly the same. Other alternatives are the addons
