+# Search syntax
+
+SearXNG allows you to modify the default categories, engines and search language
+via the search query.
+
+Prefix `!` to set category and engine names.
+
+Prefix: `:` to set the language.
+
+Abbrevations of the engines and languages are also accepted.  Engine/category
+modifiers are chainable and inclusive.  E.g. with {{search('!map !ddg !wp paris')}}
+search in map category **and** duckduckgo **and** wikipedia for
+`paris`.
+
+See the {{link('preferences', 'preferences')}} for the list of engines,
+categories and languages.
+
+## Examples
+
+Search in wikipedia for `paris`:
+
+* {{search('!wp paris')}}
+* {{search('!wikipedia paris')}}
+
+Search in category `map` for `paris`:
+
+* {{search('!map paris')}}
+
+Image search:
+
+* {{search('!images Wau Holland')}}
+
+Custom language in wikipedia:
+
+* {{search(':fr !wp Wau Holland')}}
