: It appends the content of the source field to the target.

strictly speaking, it adds the content to the target field as if it were 
another multi-valued field value.

It appends the content of the source field to the target.

What I am doing right now is to capture all the content under "content_korea"
for example, use 'copyField' to duplicate that content to "content_english".
"content_korea" gets processed with CJK analyzers, and "content_english"
gets processed with usual detailed index/query analyzers, filters, synonyms.
Some results do come up, but I have not been able to verify that this
approach is yielding better results.

A related question. What does 'copyField' actually do? Does it 'append'
content from the source field to the 'target' field? Or does it
replace/overwrite it? Thank you.
