Spinx search normalized words

I am test keywords with sphinxQL

call keywords ('azori', 'test', 1);

And get results 

+------+-----------+------------+------+------+
| qpos | tokenized | normalized | docs | hits |
+------+-----------+------------+------+------+
| 1    | azori     | a260       | 1550 | 1551 |
+------+-----------+------------+------+------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

What means a260?

Solution

  • That looks like a soundex representation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soundex

    seems like you have morphology=soundex enabled on the particular index
