Answer 1

I finally got it to work but not with a direct method!

This is what I do:

• Create a clean list of words from the source query, by:
  • change to lower case
  • replacing any special chars and punctuation with space
  • remove duplicate words
• Search using normal match with OR operator for the words joined as a string
• Now we will find the best relevant hits in result
• We take those hits one by one and do a word to word search in php (or whatever programming language you use)
• This word search will check for all the words of a document from the hits we just found, and match them with the words in source query; such that all words from hit document should be present in the source query string

This worked for me well enough!

Unless someone has a direct method from elasticsearch query language.
