Searching with acronyms

Hi,

I have a requirement where a user enters acronym of a word, then the search
results should come for the expandable word.Let us say. If the user enters
'TV', the search results should come for 'Television'.

Is the synonyms filter is the way to achieve this?

Any inputs.

Regards,
Siva

yes, a synonyms filter should allow you to achieve what you want.
