Lucene comes with a Porter stemmer and a Filter that you can use in an Analyzer: ./src/java/org/apache/lucene/analysis/PorterStemFilter.java ./src/java/org/apache/lucene/analysis/PorterStemmer.java You can find more about it here: http://www.lucenebook.com/search?query=stemming You can also see mentions of SnowballAnalyzer in those search results, and you can find an adapter for SnowballAnalyzers in Lucene Sandbox.
