Are there plans to match on partial words?
Currently, if I search for “knowledg” it will not return any results for “knowledge”, for example. Of course there are many applications for fuzzy matching in general: are there any plans to add this to the API?
Yes. We did try turning on fuzzy matching briefly, but it caused a number of unwanted side effects. We have some stories in our backlog to look into how we balance fuzzy matching with the exact matching people expect.
How about the methods google use?
“terms” = exact match anything else does fuzzy. Or a parameter of Fuzzy=True/False ?
