Hi Victor, I have the same questions about the new Suggest component. I can't really help you as I didn't really manage to understand how it worked. Sometimes, I had more results, sometimes less.
Even so, I would really be interested in your resources using Terms and shingles to implement auto-complete. I am myself a French student and it could help me improve the solution of one of my project.
