Question -- Serge, I've read stuff on the Web about word stemming. What is it and can it help my site in Google in any way?

Answer -- Hello. Word stemming is the process for reducing derived words to their stem or root form — generally a written word form. The stem need not be identical to the morphological root of the word. It is usually sufficient that related words map to the same stem, even if this stem is not in itself a valid root.

Of course the algorithm of all this has been a long-standing problem in computer science. In fact, the first paper on the subject was published in 1968. The process of word stemming is useful in search engines for query expansion or indexing and other natural language processing problems, and THIS is where it becomes really interesting for SEOs and webmasters.
