Hi, Also be sure to check out the new BeiderMorse phonetic: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/AnalyzersTokenizersTokenFilters#solr.BeiderMorseFilterFactory which handles middle eastern and eastern european names very well.
Phonetic algorithms use tons of rules for how to transform an input depending on what comes before and after, so I don't believe you'll get wildcard to work perfectly combined with phoenetic since Solr cannot guess what shuould come next. But you may get it to work for many cases, the best is simply to try it out. Use EdgeNgram followed by some phonetic ant try. You may also be interested in a MeetUp talk held in Oslo last month: http://www.meetup.com/Oslo-Solr-Community/events/67253692/ You'll find the link to Mats' talk about Norwegian phonetics if you scroll down that page. -- Jan Høydahl, search solution architect Cominvent AS - www.cominvent.com Solr Training - www.solrtraining.com 9. okt. 2012 kl. 11:54 skrev Haagen Hasle <haagenha...@gmail.com>: > > I used the admin/analysis page (great tip, I had never used it before - thank > you!) and it seems to me that the DoubleMetaphone filter converts "Hågen" to > both "JN" and "KN".
