 Azure Cognitive Search implements two Lucene-based query languages: [Simple Query Parser](https://lucene.apache.org/core/6_6_1/queryparser/org/apache/lucene/queryparser/simple/SimpleQueryParser.html) and the [Lucene Query Parser](https://lucene.apache.org/core/6_6_1/queryparser/org/apache/lucene/queryparser/classic/package-summary.html).
 
-The simple query parser is more flexible and will attempt to interpret the provided input even if query composition is not strictly correct. Because of this flexibility, it is the default parser for query requests. 
+The simple parser is more flexible and will attempt to interpret the request even if it's not perfectly composed. Because of this flexibility, it is the default for queries in Azure Cognitive Search. 
 
-The simple query syntax is used for query expressions passed in the `search=` parameter of [query request](https://docs.microsoft.com/rest/api/searchservice/search-documents), not to be confused with the [OData syntax](query-odata-filter-orderby-syntax.md) used for the [$filter](search-filters.md) parameter of that API. The `search` and `$filter` parameters have different syntax, with their own rules for constructing queries, escaping strings, and so on.

-Although the syntax is based on the [Simple Query Parser](https://lucene.apache.org/core/6_6_1/queryparser/org/apache/lucene/queryparser/simple/SimpleQueryParser.html) class, the implementation in Azure Cognitive Search excludes fuzzy search. If you need [fuzzy search](search-query-fuzzy.md) or other advanced query forms, consider the alternative [full Lucene query syntax](query-lucene-syntax.md) instead.
