Snowball Stemmer for Relevanssi Premium
=======================================

[](#snowball-stemmer-for-relevanssi-premium)

This simple WordPress plugin adds the [Wamania PHP Stemmer](https://github.com/wamania/php-stemmer) for Relevanssi Premium. Wamania PHP Stemmer includes Snowball stemmers for over dozen languages. For the exact list, see the Wamania PHP Stemmer Github.
