I have a use case where I need to know what spell correction was made when I do a full text search.

Example:- When I search for _accessorieses_  
**Found no results for: "accessorieses"**  
**Autocorrected to: "accessories"**

I have read [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/guide/current/fuzzy-matching.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/guide/current/fuzzy-matching.html) and when I make fuzziness to AUTO, I get the results I want but I don't see anything in response indicating the query was corrected to "accessories".

Is it possible to achieve this with elasticsearch?
