Text Search Languages on Self-Managed Deployments
Note
This page describes text query capabilities for self-managed (non-Atlas) deployments. For data hosted on MongoDB Atlas, MongoDB offers an improved full-text query solution, Atlas Search and a vector search solution, Atlas Vector Search.
The text index and the $text
operator may be used with the following languages, and accepts either the
two-letter ISO 639-1 language code or the long form of the
language name:
Language Name | ISO 639-1 (Two letter codes) |
---|---|
danish | da |
dutch | nl |
english | en |
finnish | fi |
french | fr |
german | de |
hungarian | hu |
italian | it |
norwegian | nb |
portuguese | pt |
romanian | ro |
russian | ru |
spanish | es |
swedish | sv |
turkish | tr |
If you specify a default_language
value of none
, the text index
parses through each word in the field, including stop words, and ignores
suffix stemming.
