"analyzer": {
"stem_exclusion_english_analyzer": {
"type": "english",
"stem_exclusion": ["authority", "authorization"]
}
}
}
}
}
{% include copy-curl.html %}
The english
analyzer is built using the following components:
-
Tokenizer:
standard
-
Token filters:
- stemmer (possessive_english)

"analysis": {
"filter": {
"english_stop": {
"type": "stop",
"stopwords": "_english_"
},
"english_stemmer": {
"type": "stemmer",
"language": "english"
},
"english_keywords": {
"type": "keyword_marker",
"keywords": []
},
"english_possessive_stemmer": {
"type": "stemmer",
"language": "possessive_english"
}
},
"analyzer": {
"english_analyzer": {
"type": "custom",
"tokenizer": "standard",
"filter": [
"english_possessive_stemmer",
"lowercase",
"english_stop",
"english_keywords",
"english_stemmer"
]
}
}
}
},
"mappings": {
"properties": {
"content": {
"type": "text",
"analyzer": "english_analyzer"
}
}
}
}
{% include copy-curl.html %}
Use the following request to examine the tokens generated using the analyzer:
POST /english-index/_analyze
{
"field": "content",
"text": "The students study in the USA and work at NASA. Their numbers are 123456."
}
{% include copy-curl.html %}
The response contains the generated tokens:
{
"tokens": [
{"token": "student","start_offset": 4,"end_offset": 12,"type": "<ALPHANUM>","position": 1},
{"token": "studi","start_offset": 13,"end_offset": 18,"type": "<ALPHANUM>","position": 2},
{"token": "usa","start_offset": 26,"end_offset": 29,"type": "<ALPHANUM>","position": 5},
{"token": "work","start_offset": 34,"end_offset": 38,"type": "<ALPHANUM>","position": 7},
