What is Query Rewrite?
Query Rewriting 🔄✨ is the process of generating different variants of a query and having the Semantic Search Engine rewrite it to present the most relevant results to the user.
In simpler terms, it’s a method used by search engines to:
- 🧐 Interpret the user’s search query.
- ✏️ Modify the query to better match the search intent.
🔍 How Search Engines Modify Queries
- 📝 Change the wording: Rewriting queries to enhance clarity and relevance.
- ✍️ Correct spelling errors: Ensuring typos don’t affect search accuracy.
- ✅ Make other adjustments: Improving query structure to provide the best possible results 🎯.
By rewriting the query, the search engine helps users get what they’re looking for more effectively! 🚀
📝 Example
Think of Query Rewriting 🔄 like asking your teacher a question, and they rephrase it to make it clearer before answering.
- 📌 You ask: “Why is the sky blue?” 🌌
- 📌 Your teacher might rephrase it as: “What causes the sky to appear blue to us?” 🤔
- ☀️🌈 Then, they explain about light scattering.
This is exactly what search engines do with your search queries! 🖥️
They rephrase or rewrite them to understand better and provide the most accurate results 🎯✨.
