Proximity

Proximity🔗

[Java developer] Amsterdam
[developer C++ Java]

Query terms within [] match if they occur in the document in any order, possibly with one or two words in between. Proximity matching is more flexible than phrases, e.g. the above query [Java developer] also matches documents containing "java software developer" and "java enterprise software developer". Proximity queries can only contain simple keywords, but not phrases. Quoting inside proximity queries will therefore be ignored.
