Answer 1

I used:

import spacy

nlp = en_core_web_sm.load()
doc = nlp("did displaying words")
print(" ".join([token.lemma_ for token in doc]))
>>> do display word

But it gived OSError: [E050] Can't find model 'en_core_web_sm'. It doesn't seem to be a shortcut link, a Python package or a valid path to a data directory. error, I used:

pip3 install https://github.com/explosion/spacy-models/releases/download/en_core_web_sm-2.2.0/en_core_web_sm-2.2.0.tar.gz

to get rid of error.
