Can WordNetLemmatizer in Nltk stem words?
I want to find word stems with Wordnet
. Does wordnet
have a function for stemming?
I use this import for my stemming, but it doesn't work as expected.
from nltk.stem.wordne开发者_运维知识库t import WordNetLemmatizer
WordNetLemmatizer().lemmatize('Having','v')
Seems like you have to input a lowercase string to the lemmatize
method:
>>> WordNetLemmatizer().lemmatize('having','v')
'have'
>>> WordNetLemmatizer().lemmatize('has','v')
'have'
Try using one of the stemmers in nltk.stem module, such as the PorterStemmer. Here's an online demo of NLTK's stemmers: http://text-processing.com/demo/stem/
No, Wordnet cannot stem the words. It can only give lemmatized words i.e. words which are actual words in the language. A stemmer may not always give real meaningful words.
