# Fields whose Values are Similar to a Specified String

## FUZZY

The `FUZZY` field specifier (case sensitive) allows you to find documents in which a specified field contains a term that is similar to a specified term or phrase.

    FieldText=FUZZY{yourTerms}:yourFields

where:

`yourTerms` | is one or more terms (or phrases). A document returns only if one of these terms (or phrases) is similar to a string in one of `yourFields`. FieldText queries which include commas and braces within the query have specific percent-encoding requirements. For information about percent-encoding, see FieldText.
`yourFields` | is one or more fields. A document returns only if it contains one of these fields, and if the value in this field is similar to one of `yourTerms`. If you want to specify multiple fields, separate them with colons (there must be no space before or after a colon).

Example:

    FieldText=FUZZY{Bisiness News,Arkive}:DRETITLE

The `DRETITLE` field value must be similar to the term Bisiness News, or Arkive for the document to return. For example, a document whose `DRETITLE` field contains Business News returns, but a document whose `DRETITLE` field contains Document Arkive does not.
