Strange behaviour with single word and phrase

I wonder if anyone could point me in the right direction please?

If I search on the phrase "the toolkit" I get hits containing that phrase but also hits that have the word 'the' before the word 'toolkit', no matter how far apart they are.

Also, if I search on the word 'the' there are no hits at all.

Thanks,

Alistair

Yep ignoring stop words. Thanks for the pointer.

Do you have stop word filtering enabled? What does your field type look 
like?

If stop words are ignored, you will get exactly the behavior you described.
