``TERM1 TERM2`` is same as ``TERM1 OR TERM2``.

``"TERM1 TERM2"`` is for phrase.

``"TERM1 TERM2"~5`` is for proximity.

``TERM~0.8`` is for fuzzy.

``*`` is for wildcard.

Boosting is done with ``^N`` syntax, like ``TERM1^10 TERM2``.

Range with ``[2017-01-01 TO 2017-02-29]``.

Logical ``AND``, ``OR``, ``NOT`` and parentheses for grouping.

Fields are set before colon, like ``FIELD:TERM``.
