You can write a custom Analyzer[+filter] that converts the input tokens to their synonyms, like Play area --> Park Restaurant --> Café Bar --> Café Road --> Street etc.
(The code of StandardAnalyzer is a good sample).

Let's say I have a document called "Bradford Street Play Area" (because I do!), and I want a search for Bradford Street Park to work. First, in general, I do an "all terms" search. That fails, so I do an OR search. Problem is a HUGE number of documents have Street in them. I don't mind that they match so much as that I'd like to have the term frequency in the corpus influence the scoring. Is there a Scorer or query-boosting trick to accomplish this? Thanks --Max
