You should ask for such question in the Elasticsearch mailing list or on  
Stackoverflow.

That said, I answer now on the mailing list. Please answer to the mailing  
and not to my direct mail.

What are you trying to achieve?

A simple analyzer already exists:

>
> Power insights and outcomes with the Elasticsearch Platform and AI. See into your data and find answers that matter with enterprise solutions designed to help you build, observe, and protect. Try Elasticsearch free today.

If you are trying to apply this analyzer to a specific field of your  
document, you have to define a mapping:

Feel free to ask more but please give more details about what you are trying  
to do.

Hard to tell since you didn't show your mapping/query, but if you are using  
the standard analyzer, then it will use the english stop word set, which  
includes "this", "was", and "or".

Even if you change the analyzer for the queries, the standard analyzer will  
still be used for indexing.
