I'm currently using the Polyglot library, however I would to be able to break down words like writing into write and ing. Polyglot is able to break down words like reading successfully into read and ing, but it fails when the stem is word written differently, as in writing or unbelievable.

Are there any libraries out there that could accomplish what I need?

  • If you're for a stem words package [nltk.stem package](https://www.nltk.org/api/nltk.stem.html) – DarrylG Jun 05 '20 at 14:09
  • Not quite. I'm looking for a package that extracts morphemes from words. So, for example, I'd like to extract `write` and `ing` from the word `writing`. – Dominique Jun 05 '20 at 14:19

    @Dominique Hey Dominique. While I don't have the answer to your question, I am also looking for a python library that can break down words into their morphemes. Have you had any luck in this yet? If not, how have you used the polyglot library to do this? I'd really appreciate if you'd let me know for I have a project that is counting on this. – Marcelino Velasquez Apr 20 '21 at 21:41
  • @MarcelinoVelasquez Hey, unfortunately I never found a solution for this an another dev took over the task. – Dominique Apr 21 '21 at 22:22
  • @Dominique there is a python library https://github.com/ecscstatsconsulting/morphemes that might be helpful to you – Wanderer Feb 13 '23 at 17:10
