Stemming reduces a word to a shorter base form, which increases recall in B2C Commerce search.
For example, if we use stemming at index time, all the words such as locks, locker, and
locked are stemmed to lock. A search for lock returns all the documents
that has these different forms of the word. Configure B2C Commerce to automatically
overwrite the default stemming for known misspelled terms. For example, the term stem of
leggings or bedding is leg and bed, respectively; which, in both cases, is inappropriate,
and doesn’t help the consumer find products. Using an exceptions list, the keyword bedding
only finds products containing bedding, and the keyword bed only finds products containing
bed.
Specify more than one term for the same stem to consider plural forms or other combinations. For example, the keyword towel finds products containing towels and towel and the keyword towels does the same.
Create up to 500 exceptions in this list.
