Can WordNetLemmatizer in Nltk stem words?

Question

I want to find word stems with Wordnet. Does wordnet have a function for stemming? I use this import for my stemming, but it doesn't work as expected.

from nltk.stem.wordnet import WordNetLemmatizer
WordNetLemmatizer().lemmatize('Having','v')

Answer 1

Seems like you have to input a lowercase string to the lemmatize method:

>>> WordNetLemmatizer().lemmatize('having','v')
'have'
>>> WordNetLemmatizer().lemmatize('has','v')
'have'
