How shoppers actually type

Real query shapes from Greek storefronts, and what each one has to match.

Synonym groups are configured once in the dashboard. Everything else works out of the box.

What goes wrong without it

About 40% of Greek shoppers type in Greeklish — 'tsanta' rather than 'τσάντα'. A search bar that only reads Greek characters returns nothing at all.
Accents get dropped constantly. 'παπουτσια' and 'παπούτσια' are the same word to a shopper and two different strings to a database.
The keyboard is left in the wrong layout, so 'shoes' arrives as 'σηοεσ' and a perfectly ordinary query looks like noise.
Brand names stay in Latin script inside an otherwise Greek catalogue, so a five-word query spans two alphabets.

How SearchX handles it

Greeklish transliteration is built in. Latin-typed Greek is mapped back to Greek before matching, with no synonym list to maintain.
Accent-insensitive matching. Accented and unaccented forms resolve to the same term, on the query side and in the catalogue.
Keyboard-layout detection catches queries typed on the wrong layout and re-reads them in the alphabet the shopper meant.
Typo tolerance on top of all of it, so 'αθλητκά' still reaches 'αθλητικά'.

The widget in Greek

The widget interface ships in Greek — placeholders, filters, sorting and pagination included.
Uppercase renders the way Greek typography requires: the widget sets lang='el' on its root, so ΦΛΕΒΩΝ drops its accent instead of becoming ΦΛΕΒΏΝ.
Greek facet labels coming from your catalogue are tagged individually, so they uppercase correctly even under an English interface.
