Thank you. I am talking about dismax's parameters.

This is how I understand things, please tell me where I'm wrong:

Query slop (qs) = how many words you can move the query to match the text.
Phrase slop (ps) (when used in conjunction with &pf=text - is there another
possibility?) = how many words you can move the text to match the query.

How are those two different in terms of the results they produce?
