Obviously, sometimes this will generate nonsense words (e.g. “studieses”) but these won’t be contained in your document and hence won’t produce unwanted hits.

P.S. Mild typo in a few places in para 4 (below the code sample) — “fulltext” for (presumably) “freetext”.

Only suggestion I have is to use OR, and append an S to the string you are passing in. True, for some tenses it fail (goose vs geese) but would catch most of what you need.

Does something like FORMSOF(PLURAL, light) exist? (I want to match “dog” with “dogs”, but not “run” with “ran”.
