Synonyms may be generated and associated with a reserved phrase such that even when queries do not include reserved phrases, the synonyms may be used to map queries to the reserved phrases and the associated content. Synonyms may be generated and filtered such that a synonym is only associated with one reserved phrase thereby reducing search ambiguity.
