Hi All,  
I need help how to specify analyzer in the search query (curl).

{  
"from" : 0,  
"size" : 1000,  
"query" : {  
"match" : {  
"text" : {  
"query" : "somejapanesetext"  
"type" : "phrase",  
"analyzer" : "kuromoji"  
}  
}  
},  
"explain" : true  
}

How I understand which analyzer is applied for this search query. has  
applied setting while creating index as below e.g

{  
"index":{  
"analysis":{  
"tokenizer" : {  
"kuromoji" : {  
"type":"kuromoji\_tokenizer",  
"mode":"search"  
}  
},  
"analyzer" : {  
"kuromoji\_analyzer" : {  
"type" : "custom",  
"tokenizer" : "kuromoji\_tokenizer"  
}  
}  
}  
}  
}'

Can some please guide to get right link or let me know what I am missing.

Thanks
