+### Redis’ search and query capabilities default dialect
+
+Release 6.0.0 introduces a client-side default dialect for Redis’ search and query capabilities.
+By default, the client now overrides the server-side dialect with version 2, automatically appending *DIALECT 2* to commands like *FT.AGGREGATE* and *FT.SEARCH*.
 
---------------------------
+**Important**: Be aware that the query dialect may impact the results returned. If needed, you can revert to a different dialect version by configuring the client accordingly.
+
+``` python
+>>> from redis.commands.search.field import TextField
+>>> from redis.commands.search.query import Query
+>>> from redis.commands.search.index_definition import IndexDefinition
+>>> import redis
+
+>>> r = redis.Redis(host='localhost', port=6379, db=0)
+>>> r.ft().create_index(
+>>>     (TextField("name"), TextField("lastname")),
+>>>     definition=IndexDefinition(prefix=["test:"]),
+>>> )
+
+>>> r.hset("test:1", "name", "James")
+>>> r.hset("test:1", "lastname", "Brown")
+
+>>> # Query with default DIALECT 2
+>>> query = "@name: James Brown"
+>>> q = Query(query)
+>>> res = r.ft().search(q)
+
+>>> # Query with explicit DIALECT 1
+>>> query = "@name: James Brown"
+>>> q = Query(query).dialect(1)
+>>> res = r.ft().search(q)
+```
+
+You can find further details in the [query dialect documentation](https://redis.io/docs/latest/develop/interact/search-and-query/advanced-concepts/dialects/).
