Gende Stemmer is a grammatically ignorant stemmer for Sorani Kurdish. Our aim is to make its output predictable and consistent, but not necessarily grammatically correct.
Why is this useful? It's useful for Full Text Searching indexing and other Information Retrieval (IR) tasks. It's useful to be able to stem both سێوەکانیشتان and سێوێکی back to سێو.
Sometimes the output of the stemmer is very ugly, but as long as it is predictable and consistent we don't mind.
NOTE: Please note that this project is just a Proof Of Concept (POC) and doesn't work in every scenario. If you run into edge cases, please open an issue.

var text = "سڵاومان گەیاندە هەموویان";
var stemmed = Stemmer.Stem(text);
// stemmed: سڵاو گەیاند هەمووThis Stemmer is inspired by:
