This module is an implementation of the Porter Stemming Algorithm : http://snowball.tartarus.org/french/stemmer.html with some improvement.
For example, you can stemm words in this way:
** Word ** -> ** Stemmed word **
abandonnée abandon abandonner abandon abandonnera abandon abondance abond abondant abond abondante abond
The code is carefully crafted to work in conjunction with the the
Lingua::Stem module by Benjamin Franz.
This french version is based on the work of Aldo Calpini (Italian Version)
