query synonyms

I'm using a full text index to search organization names. My language word
breaker is French (France).
My situation is that if I search for example for a organization with the word
"meilleur" in the name ("meilleur" means "greatest" in english), the answer
that the search will give me (using freetext or formsof(inflectional))is all
the organizations with "meilleur", "bon" and "bonne" in there name. But the
thing is that my client don't want the organizations with "bon" and "bonne"
(who means "good" in english) for there answer.
I made a little search and the answer that I found is that these are synonyms
and they should be listed in my tsfra.xml file. This file looks like this :
- <XML ID="Tahoe Thesaurus">
- <!--
Commented out
<thesaurus xmlns="x-schema:tsSchema.xml">
<expansion>
<sub weight="0.8">Internet Explorer</sub>
<sub weight="0.2">IE</sub>
<sub weight="0.9">IE5</sub>
</expansion>
<replacement>
<pat>NT5</pat>
<pat>W2K</pat>
<sub weight="1.0">Windows 2000</sub>
</replacement>
<expansion>
<sub weight="0.5">run**</sub>
<sub weight="0.5">jog**</sub>
</expansion>
</thesaurus>
-->
</XML>
there's nothing that indicate that meilleur is synonyms of good.
Know I wonder is there another files somewhere who can have these synonyms?
Could it be in the Microsoft search engine?
Thanks in advance,
Nik
P.S. Sorry for my english

This is hard coded in the stemmer. Unfortunately there is nothing you can do
other than to write your own stemmer.
