Adding another field with another stemmer and searching both??? Wow never thought of doing that. I guess that doesn't really double the size of your index tho because all the terms are almost the same right? Let me look into that. I'll raise the other issue in a separate thread and thanks.

Hi Robert, we often ran into the same issue with stemmers. This is why we created more than one field, each field with different stemmers. It adds some overhead but worked quite well. Regarding your off-topic-question: Look at the debugging-output of your searches. Sometimes you configured your tools, especially the WDF, wrong and the queryParser creates an unexpected result which leads to unmatched but still relevant documents. Please, show us your debugging-output and the field-definition so that we can provide you some help!
