Hi Renaud, Maybe you should take a look at the Morphalou project ( http://actarus.atilf.fr/lexiques/morphalou/) it is a database of lemma and forms in French.
You could extract the data and create a synonym index or something. Don't hesitate to contact me off list (and in French if needed) for more info. Patrick On 12/22/06, Mark Miller <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Many English words do not stem to real English words with the English stemmer either.
