I have a couple of questions about the Finnish stemming algorithm. In your
documention, you state that in step 4 to look for the suffixes in R1;
however, in the Snowball implementation it looks for the suffixes (e.g.,
"mpi") in R2. Which is correct?
Also, in the Snowball implementation step 3 will delete the endings "ta" and
"tä"; however, the documentation does not mention these ending. Is it
correct to delete these endings? Did the documentation just forget to
mention this?
Thanks,
Blake Madden
