=head1 NAME
Lucy::Analysis::SnowballStemmer - Reduce related words to a shared root.
=head1 SYNOPSIS
my $stemmer = Lucy::Analysis::SnowballStemmer->new( language => 'es' );
my $polyanalyzer = Lucy::Analysis::PolyAnalyzer->new(
analyzers => [ $case_folder, $tokenizer, $stemmer ],
);
This class is a wrapper around the Snowball stemming library, so it supports
the same languages.
=head1 DESCRIPTION
SnowballStemmer is an L<Analyzer|Lucy::Analysis::Analyzer> which reduces
related words to a root form (using the "Snowball" stemming library). For
instance, "horse", "horses", and "horsing" all become "hors" -- so that a
search for 'horse' will also match documents containing 'horses' and
'horsing'.
