Hi All

I sent this email to the zebra mailing list

I wish that koha will support suffix and prefix in the arabic search by default  in the future

I wish if you have any Idea about the solution for this

Best regards
Karam.

Hi all ,
I'm new to zebra , and using it in "koha" ILS

in the Arabic language there is some letter come before the words or after them these letters we don't need to index in our index
I will give you an example :
in English we can say : the car...
in Arabic the same is : ÇáÓíÇÑÉ
if you note that the letter in Red is "the" and it's ignored in English search  but in Arabic search we need the zebra to find every record that have " the word " or just "word" ÇáßáãÉ or ßáãÉ

so how to define that to zebra

thanks a lot
