Ask HN: Search engine specific for intent/meaning

Do any search engines exclude common phrases from their results?

I'm looking for an app in HN comments and whatever combination of words often includes common phrases such as "that is a stretch", "home stretch" etc that are quite obviously irrelevant.

Eg: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=pastYear&page=0&prefix=true&query=app%20stretch&sort=byPopularity&type=comment

I imagine Algolia is possibly one of the better search indexing tools, and the thought occurred, maybe a bit of a stretch, that this would be a useful noise reducing filter. Probably over-simplifying an entire engineering domain.
