Hi,

I would like to index

"driving with car A is a bad thing"

knowing that I have special words composed of several words e.g. "car A"  
and "car B".

if I use standard appraoch the a or b are lost. ideally for "driving with  
car A is a bad thing" the analyzer should return this:  
( "driving", "car A", "bad", "thing")

help, how will you do that?

* * *

my filters night well  
filter: {  
protect\_words:{  
type: "keyword\_marker",  
keywords: "car a", "car b"]  
},  
protect\_words2:{  
type: "word\_delimiter",  
protected\_words: ["car a", "car b"]  
}  
},  
analyzer: {

```
    custom_level2: {  
     tokenizer: 'standard',        
      filter: ["asciifolding", "lowercase", "protect_words"],
      type: 'custom'
    },
    custom_level1: {       
      tokenizer: 'keyword',   
      filter: ["asciifolding", "lowercase", "protect_words2"],
      type: 'custom'
    },
}

```

}

any help?

This will not produce exactly what your are looking for but I would use shingles: [Elasticsearch Platform — Find real-time answers at scale | Elastic](http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/analysis-shingle-tokenfilter.html)

And boost results found with the shingle analyzer than the standard analyzer So results containing "car A" will appear first.
