Systems and methods for generating search results based on non-linguistic tokens are disclosed. In embodiments, a computer-implemented method comprises: mapping, by a computing device, a non-linguistic token to documents during indexing based on associations in a token database between the non-linguistic token and variations of a multi-word term; receiving, by the computing device, the multi-word term in a search query; determining, by the computing device, the non-linguistic token associated with the multi-word term using the token database; and generating, by the computing device, search results based on the multi-word term and the non-linguistic token.
