You've got the parentheses in the wrong place.
The way I'd suggest doing this is
regression=# create table tab (a regconfig, b text);
CREATE TABLE
regression=# create index idx on tab using gin(to_tsvector(a,b));
CREATE INDEX
regression=# explain select * from tab where to_tsvector(a,b) @@ to_tsquery('english','foo');
QUERY PLAN
----------------------------------------------------------------
Index Scan using idx on tab (cost=0.00..8.27 rows=1 width=36)
Index Cond: (to_tsvector(a, b) @@ '''foo'''::tsquery)
(2 rows)
If you want to use abbreviations like 'en' and 'de', create text search
configurations named that way instead of inserting a run-time
conversion.
