# TERM

The `TERM` field specifier (case sensitive) allows you to find documents with a specified field whose value contains a conceptual match of one or more terms specified by you. A conceptual match exists if a term you specify matches a term in a specified field after it has been stemmed.

Note: If the language that you are using does not match the `DefaultLanguageType` that you have specified in the HPE Distributed Action Handler configuration file, you must add the `LanguageType` parameter to your query action.

## Format

    FieldText=TERM{yourTerms}:yourFields

`yourTerms` | Type one or more terms. A document is only returned if one of `yourFields` contains a value that includes a term which conceptually matches of one of the specified terms. You can match strings that contain punctuation (but see Note below) or consist of several words. Note: To distinguish query syntax punctuation from punctuation within strings, double-percent-encode commas and curly braces within strings. Query syntax punctuation must be left unencoded. There must be no space before or after a separator comma.
`yourFields` | Type one or more fields. A document is only returned if it contains one of these fields, and if a term in this field conceptually matches one of `yourTerms`. Separate multiple fields with colons (`:`). There must be no space before or after a colon.

## Example

    FieldText=TERM{shopping,centers}:DRETITLE

A document's `DRETITLE` field must contain a term that conceptually matches shopping or centers for this document to be returned. If a document's `DRETITLE` field, for example, has the value shop this document is returned, while if it has the value `bookshopping`, it is not returned.

    FieldText=TERM{training,football}:ITEM:PRODUCT

A document's `ITEM` or `PRODUCT` field must contain a term that conceptually matches `trainers` or `football` for this document to be returned. If a document's `ITEM` or `PRODUCT` field, for example, has the value `train` or `footballers`, this document is returned, while if it has the value `trainer` or `soccer`, it is not returned.
