NAME
   Lingua::Stem::It - Porter's stemming algorithm for Italian

SYNOPSIS
       use Lingua::Stem::It;
       my $stems = Lingua::Stem::It::stem({ -words => $word_list_reference,
                                            -locale => 'it',
                                            -exceptions => $exceptions_hash,
                                         });

       my $stem = Lingua::Stem::It::stem_word( $word );

DESCRIPTION
   This module applies the Porter Stemming Algorithm to its parameters,
   returning the stemmed words.

   The algorithm is implemented exactly (I hope :-) as described in:

       http://snowball.tartarus.org/algorithms/italian/stemmer.html

   The code is carefully crafted to work in conjunction with the the
   Lingua::Stem module by Benjamin Franz, from which I've also
   borrowed some functionalities (caching and exception list).
