Frank, Is the following what you are after:
Here is a query for my last name, but misspelled: http://search-lucene.com/?q=gospodneticc But if you look above the results, you will see this text: Search results for "gospodnetic" : ... and the search results are indeed for the auto-corrected query. To get this functionality we built this: http://sematext.com/products/dym-researcher/index.html Regarding your second question: I don't think there is anything in Solr that allows it to automatically figure out which terms are the "more specific" ones and which are the "more general" ones. Perhaps it can base such assumptions about terms based on their occurrence frequency in the index, and here TermVectorsComponent can help.
