Stemming with SnowballC
The tidytext package doesn’t have specific stemming functions and instead relies on SnowballC and standard tidyverse commands.
The SnowballC package in R is an interface to the Snowball stemming library, which is a collection of algorithms for various languages. These algorithms were developed by Martin Porter and are widely used in natural language processing tasks.
SnowballC includes functions ...
