Jul 18, 2018 at 16:47 comment added MkL Snowball is a stemmer so it does not produce lemma (base form) but a kind of 'simplified form' common to all inflected forms. That can lead to a non-existing forms like 'company' -> 'compani but it's enough to have a common form - common dictionary identifier for all inflected forms - for further processing, e.g. text classification. But it may be a bit awkward when you want to visualize results. Having looked to Snowball for German, it does the same - tries to cut off typical suffixes for conjugation and declination et al. E.g. Hunde -> Hund but also Katze, Katzen -> Katz.
Jul 17, 2018 at 18:38 comment added Tido like for NER. But indeed, I wanted to use POSs for a lemmatizer: github.com/WZBSocialScienceCenter/germalemma and spaCy's lemmatizer for german is very bad. Do you know about the accuarcy of this stemmer? Sounds interesting.
