I have a table ( named test) with following strucuture ID, lang, Name, Name_en, Name_de http://postgresql.1045698.n5.nabble.com/file/n3303131/Capture.jpg I want to do a full text seach on the table. I can create a ts_vector and store in another column by gin_tsvector = tsvector('de', Titel_de) || tsvector('en' Titel_en) . But my problem is that when i want to select and display the column Name_en if the text is being entered in english language. How can i select column based on the text being entered? select id,(???????) from test where gin_tsvector @@ to_tsquery ('english', 'Ivalo Airport') For example, if user entered Ivalo Airport, i want to select column Name_en and if user entered Flughafen Ivalo, i want to select column Name_de. Any help would be highly appreciated ! -- View this message in context: http://postgresql.1045698.n5.nabble.com/Multilingual-full-text-indexing-tp3303131p3303131.html Sent from the PostgreSQL - general mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
