According to Elsa Chan:

No, not really.  It can handle searches for specific words, or boolean
expressions for combinations of words.  The latest 3.2 beta also supports
phrase searching, but there's nothing for parsing natural language queries.
Some of the fuzzy matching techniques like the endings and synonyms algorithms
can help in that regard, but this isn't Ask Jeeves-style of query parsing.
