No, actually the index doesn't know and doesn't care. The tsvector representation is language-independent --- it contains "just strings". All the language-dependent processing happens during reduction of the document text to tsvector (or reduction of a search string to tsquery). So if words from different languages happen to reduce to the same string, searches in both languages will find that entry. Usually this works the way people want; but if not, you could add an additional WHERE condition to your queries to match only documents in the desired language. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
