NLTK Stopwords

Stopword lists from NLTK, covering 33 languages.

Each language is a separate config. Each row is one stopword.

Usage

from datasets import load_dataset

# Load one language
ds = load_dataset("nltk-data-hub/stopwords", "portuguese")
words = ds["stopwords"]["word"]

# Load all languages
for lang in ['albanian', 'arabic', 'azerbaijani', 'basque', 'belarusian', 'bengali', 'catalan', 'chinese', 'danish', 'dutch', 'english', 'finnish', 'french', 'german', 'greek', 'hebrew', 'hinglish', 'hungarian', 'indonesian', 'italian', 'kazakh', 'nepali', 'norwegian', 'portuguese', 'romanian', 'russian', 'slovene', 'spanish', 'swedish', 'tajik', 'tamil', 'turkish', 'uzbek']:
    ds = load_dataset("nltk-data-hub/stopwords", lang)
    print(lang, ds["stopwords"].num_rows)
