is it possible elasticsearch to handle queries containing typos.
Example
trying to query "colthes" would return results of "clothes"
If that’s possible, how to do it ? (which analyzer? which tokenizer? which filter?)
Could you show an example? Is it possible to apply the configuration for non-english languages (i’m looking for french)
Yes it is certainly possible. A working example for french can be seen on this site, which uses Elasticsearch as a back-end. For example by searching for “abbendice” the query returns “appendice” (appendix in english). Specifically what you’re looking for is the fuzzy query.
Be aware though that it may not be suitable depending on the size of data you’re trying to index. Hope that helps.
