Morpho-linguistical Analysis
Morpho-linguistical analysis plays an important role in the work of every
search engine. Its quality is critical for languages having multiple word
forms, German among them. For example, a customer searching for
"Vertragshandys" on your retail Web site should get the page containing
"Handy mit Vertrag" near the top of the results page.
To give your customers the search results they expect, Insuma uses smart
morpho-linguistical tools. They perform not just stemming of keywords like
simpler search engines, but recognise complex word forms and compound
words. This is especially important for the German language.
You can see from the examples below how our morpho-linguistical tools
decompose and analyse the entered words. A relevant document may contain
none of the words explicitly mentioned in the search query, and still be
found.

Search for single words also yields composed words |
| Search for Blicke also yields Blick |
Search for plural also yields singular |
| Search for schoener also yields schoensten |
Search for comparative also yields superlative |
| Search for Goettern also yields Goetter |
Search for dative also yields nominative |
