How do you want to search those descriptions? Do you know the query
language going in?

Hi
We have a dataset that contains productname, category and
descriptions. The
descriptions can be in one or more different languages. What would
be the
recommended way of indexing these?
My initial thoughts are to index each description as a separate
field and
append the language identifier to the field name, for example, three
fields
with description_en, description_de, descrtiption_fr. Is this the
best
approach or is there a better way?
