+# Hunspell token filter
+
+The `hunspell` token filter is used for stemming and morphological analysis of words in a specific language. This filter applies Hunspell dictionaries, which are widely used in spell checkers. It works by breaking down words into their root forms (stemming).
+
+The Hunspell dictionary files are automatically loaded at startup from the `<OS_PATH_CONF>/hunspell/<locale>` directory. For example, the `en_GB` locale must have at least one `.aff` file and one or more `.dic` files in the `<OS_PATH_CONF>/hunspell/en_GB/` directory.
+
+You can download these files from [LibreOffice dictionaries](https://github.com/LibreOffice/dictionaries).
+
+## Parameters
+
+The `hunspell` token filter can be configured with the following parameters.
+
+Parameter | Required/Optional | Data type | Description
+:--- | :--- | :--- | :--- 
+`language/lang/locale` | At least one of the three is required | String | Specifies the language for the Hunspell dictionary.
+`dedup` | Optional | Boolean | Determines whether to remove multiple duplicate stemming terms for the same token. Default is `true`.
+`dictionary` | Optional | Array of strings | Configures the dictionary files to be used for the Hunspell dictionary. Default is all files in the `<OS_PATH_CONF>/hunspell/<locale>` directory.
+`longest_only` | Optional | Boolean | Specifies whether only the longest stemmed version of the token should be returned. Default is `false`.
+
+## Example
+
+The following example request creates a new index named `my_index` and configures an analyzer with the `hunspell` filter:
+
+```json
+PUT /my_index
+{
+  "settings": {
+    "analysis": {
+      "filter": {
+        "my_hunspell_filter": {
+          "type": "hunspell",
+          "lang": "en_GB",
+          "dedup": true,
+          "longest_only": true
+        }
+      },
+      "analyzer": {
+        "my_analyzer": {
+          "type": "custom",
+          "tokenizer": "standard",
+          "filter": [
+            "lowercase",
+            "my_hunspell_filter"
+          ]
+        }
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+{% include copy-curl.html %}
+
+## Generated tokens
+
+Use the following request to examine the tokens generated using the analyzer:
+
+```json
+POST /my_index/_analyze
+{
+  "analyzer": "my_analyzer",
+  "text": "the turtle moves slowly"
+}
+```
+{% include copy-curl.html %}
+
+The response contains the generated tokens:
+
+```json
+{
+  "tokens": [
+    {
+      "token": "the",
+      "start_offset": 0,
+      "end_offset": 3,
+      "type": "<ALPHANUM>",
+      "position": 0
+    },
+    {
+      "token": "turtle",
+      "start_offset": 4,
+      "end_offset": 10,
+      "type": "<ALPHANUM>",
+      "position": 1
+    },
+    {
+      "token": "move",
+      "start_offset": 11,
+      "end_offset": 16,
+      "type": "<ALPHANUM>",
+      "position": 2
+    },
+    {
+      "token": "slow",
+      "start_offset": 17,
+      "end_offset": 23,
+      "type": "<ALPHANUM>",
+      "position": 3
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
