Hi Geert

Unfortunately nodes with an xml:lang attribute not matching the lang
provided to a stemmed search are excluded from the search. So even
exact/unstemmed matches are not found.

I agree - this is the problem :(

Are you sure that stemming is affecting which documents are being
searched? It does ofcourse affects how many results are found, but since
stemming won't work on old english, you will need to enter exactly
matching tokens to find results in old english texts. Stemming should
only increase the hit ratio, not decrease it..

Kind regards,
