So you want expansion stemming (currently not supported ), which expands query and do not require re-indexing. As described here : http://www.slideshare.net/otisg/finite-state-queries-in-lucene May be you can extract stemming collisions from your index and use them in a huge synonym.txt file? > Other options besides protection?
