It is designed for natural language processing and text analysis workflows where filtering out these high-frequency, low-semantic-value words improves downstream analysis\u2014keyword extraction, topic modeling, search relevance, and similar tasks.\n\nThe package offers both simple and safe loading modes, built-in caching for repeated access, and a filter system for custom post-processing of word lists. It has no external runtime dependencies, making it easy to add to any Python project. The library supports both ISO 639-1 language codes (e.g., 'en') and full language names (e.g., 'english') for convenience.","worth_installing":"Yes. Stop-words is a mature, zero-dependency library with permissive licensing, low install friction, and no known vulnerabilities. It is actively maintained and widely used. Install it if you need multilingual stop-word filtering for NLP or text preprocessing; the aging maintenance status is not a blocker for a stable, feature-complete utility."},"id":"stop-words","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/stop-words","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/stop-words.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/stop-words/"},"maintenance":{"status":"aging"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2025-11-03","license_spdx":"BSD-3-Clause","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"stop-words","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Get list of common stop words in various languages in Python"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":207315,"position":9555,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"2025.11.4"}
