TL;DR: The Force can be used to search for and locate individuals, even from across great distances The Force can be used to sense the presence of nearby individuals, especially if they're Force users that you've encountered before The Force can presumably be used to conceal your presence from others As Yoda put it in The Empire Strikes Back [LINK] : YODA: Difficult to see.

However, it does seem at the time A New Hope was filmed and released the pronunciation may have been; LEE-ah . Evidence: Episode III [LINK] In the scene where Padme gives birth, Obi-Wan asks her to name the children. At about 0:47 in the video Leia is born. Padme clearly pronounces it LAY-uh .
