I want to search some data by tags.  
Can i store 2 or more fields with the same name and type in document?  
Can i use this mapping for that?  
{  
"properties": {  
"tag": {  
"type": "keyword"  
},  
"origin": {  
"type": "keyword"  
}  
}  
}  
How can i add a new tag to the document and search by them?  
Should i use an array of a tags?  
What is the best way to do that?
