Hello everyone,

I am developing a multilingual index so there is a need for different
languages support. I need some answers to the follwing questions:

1. Which steps should I follow in order to get(download) all the
stopwords-synonyms files for several languages?

2. Is there any site containing them?

3. Should I download them somehow or they are already embedded to the
solr.war?

Thanx,
Alex

Synonyms largely depend on what you're indexing. There is no general list of
synonyms. Also, because if you expand synonyms at index time, the index grows
to extreme proportions.

The wiki has a nice list for many languages. Which stemmer to use, whether
special lowercasing is needed and stopwords.

They're stored in your SOLR_HOME/conf directory.

Basically I have one more question, by saying that "Synonyms largely depend
on what you're indexing" you mean that I probably need to implement a
mechanism for handling synonyms right? If yes, you have any suggestions how
to implement this?

Thanx,
Alex

No, it's not an implementation its more dependant on business. I mean, there
is no need expand synonyms for terms in a biology field while you're indexing
physics documents.
