title: SphinxQL - How to match words within a single string
body: <p>I have the following and several other strings indexed. All words are glued together.</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Stringisaflexiblepieceofropeortwinewhichisusedtotie,bind,orhangotherobjects.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>Which is a sentence from wikipedia.</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>String is a flexible piece of rope or twine which is used to tie, bind, or hang other objects.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>I use SphinxQL to search for several words. E.g.</p>
  
  <pre><code>SELECT * FROM sentences WHERE MATCH('piece rope bind');
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This should return the above string as a result, but it returns 0 rows.</p>
  
  <p>How should the query look like to not look for words, but to simply match the words in a string?</p>
  
  <p>I have played already with the ranker options like</p>
  
  <pre><code>SELECT * FROM sentences WHERE MATCH('piece rope bind') OPTION ranker=matchany';
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but with no success.</p>
  
  <p>Any help is much appreciated!</p>
