+=== Regexp Query
+
+The `regexp` query allows you to use regular expression term queries.
+See <<regexp-syntax>> for details of the supported regular expression language.
+
+*Note*: The performance of a `regexp` query heavily depends on the
+regular expression chosen. Matching everything like `.*` is very slow as
+well as using lookaround regular expressions. If possible, you should
+try to use a long prefix before your regular expression starts. Wildcard
+matchers like `.*?+` will mostly lower performance.
+
+[source,js]
+--------------------------------------------------
+{
+    "regexp":{
+        "name.first": "s.*y"
+    }
+}
+--------------------------------------------------
+
+Boosting is also supported
+
+[source,js]
+--------------------------------------------------
+{
+    "regexp":{
+        "name.first":{
+            "value":"s.*y",
+            "boost":1.2
+        }
+    }
+}
+--------------------------------------------------
+
+You can also use special flags
+
+[source,js]
+--------------------------------------------------
+{
+    "regexp":{
+        "name.first": "s.*y",
+        "flags" : "INTERSECTION|COMPLEMENT|EMPTY"
+    }
+}
+--------------------------------------------------
+
+Possible flags are `ALL`, `ANYSTRING`, `AUTOMATON`, `COMPLEMENT`,
+`EMPTY`, `INTERSECTION`, `INTERVAL`, or `NONE`. Please check the
+http://lucene.apache.org/core/4_3_0/core/index.html?org%2Fapache%2Flucene%2Futil%2Fautomaton%2FRegExp.html[Lucene
+documentation] for their meaning
