(porter-stemmer "securing")

Ewwww. I want "secure".
Time for kenny-stemmer, or does someone know of a sensible normalizer of
word variants?

(assert (equal (porter-stemmer "securing") (porter-stemmer "secure")))
Stems aren't meant to be real words...

Sorry, I was too terse, and I guess your AI was not able to get past
that. Forunately Jon's engine chewed right through it.

You are looking for morphological analysis of NL. Google for this and
you will get many many hits (including those with a Lisp connection).
I had a good version of one of these (a two level version based on
KIMMO, I think...), but it's on (I hope) another machine that I'm not
running at the moment.

I have a really elegant implementation of this, unfortunately my
signature is too narrow to hold it.

Yeah, maybe the kooks in sci.math will even start offering "proven" 10
line versions of it...
