There is PhraseQuery, too, but lets consider two cases:

case1: that PhraseQuery is not being used:
then should i add to standard filter’s stopwords also the french stopwords both 
at index & search times? can i just add them at search time and keep old 
friends index as it is?

case2: that PhraseQuery being used:
i guess i need to play with the “slops” and stopwords in this case will not 
help, right?

Thanks
