title: How Can I Add More Languages to Stopwords in NLTK?
body: <p>I'm using NLTK with stopwords to detect the language of a document using the method described by Alejandro Nolla at <a href="http://blog.alejandronolla.com/2013/05/15/detecting-text-language-with-python-and-nltk/" rel="noreferrer">http://blog.alejandronolla.com/2013/05/15/detecting-text-language-with-python-and-nltk/</a> , and it works reasonably well.</p>
  
  <p>I'm also working with some additional languages not included in the NLTK stopwords package, such as Czech and Romanian, and they get false matches as other languages. These are the languages in stopwords:</p>
  
  <p>['danish', 'dutch', 'english', 'finnish', 'french', 'german', 'hungarian', 'italian', 'norwegian', 'portuguese', 'russian', 'spanish', 'swedish', 'turkish']</p>
  
  <p>How can I expand the list of languages supported by NLTK? Are there other stopword lists available that I can add? Is there a documented method I can use to create an add my own stopword lists?</p>
