Hi, we have several entries in our database our customer would like to find when using a not exactly matching search string. The Problem is kind of related to spelling correction and synonyms. But instead of single entries in synonyms.txt we would like a automatic solution for this group of problems:
When searching for the name: "schmid" we want to find also documents with the name "schmidt" included. There are analog names like "hildebrand" and "hildebrandt" and more. That is the reason we'd like to find a automatic solution for this group of words. We allready use the following filters in our index chain <filter class="solr.DictionaryCompoundWordTokenFilterFactory" dictionary="dictionary_de.txt"/> <filter class="solr.SnowballPorterFilterFactory" language="German2" protected="protwords.txt"/> Unfortunatelly the german stemmer is not handling such problems. Nor is this a problem related to compound words. Does anyone know of a solution? maybe its possible to set up a filter rule to extend words ending with letter "d" automatically with letter "t" in the query chain? Or other direction to remove "t" letters after "d" letters in index chain. Thanks a lot Thomas -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/German-language-specific-problem-automatic-Spelling-correction-automatic-Synonyms-tp3216278p3216278.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
