Speaking of Term and Synonyms...

In the terms registration, you only need to register the irrelevant terms and the terms that should have synonyms. All other terms that are no registered as irrelevant will be automatically considered for indexation and search for documents by content.

The term registration is done per language and it does not have automatic translation. Thus, if the same term is considered irrelevant in more languages, you need to register the term in each language. The same language treatment is considered for relevant terms and synonyms.

The synonyms are considered in the indexation and search for documents by contents. They allow searches to be done by terms that are not explicitly mentioned in the documents, but that are equivalent.
