In this particular case (Greek, English), they use totally distinct characters. so their terms will never conflate with each other, their stemmers will never mess with the other language's text, etc. So I would: a. switch from LowerCaseFilter to GreekLowerCaseFilter... it lowercases english the same way, don't worry. b. add greek stopwords file to your stopfilter. stopfilterfactory can take multiple file arguments... just separate them with a comma. c. add the greek stemmer right after the porter stemmer. then your field works fine for greek and english...
