Natural Language Toolkit (NLTK) is one of the most popular and useful natural language processing (NLP) platforms, useful for developing Python programs that work with natural languages (such as English, German, and others). NLTK offers user-friendly interfaces to more than 50 text corpora and other lexical resources. NLTK resources include WordNet, along with a collection of text processing libraries that can be useful for text classification, tokenization, stemming, tagging, parsing, and semantic reasoning. Additionally, there is an active discussion forum that can be very supportive and offer solutions to commonly occurring technical problems.
