Hello - Sorry, I obviously made a mistake here. I said earlier that it seems to me that the word 'united' is being lemmatized (to 'unite'). But it seems that's not the case. It seems that there isn't any lemmatization or stemming being done. I had previously assumed that the default 'text_general' fieldtype in Solr probably handles this; but seems that's not the case.
I realize that what is going on with me is something else. I will start another email thread for that. Thanks.
