By its ideal definition, lemmatization is a process wherein the inflectional and variant forms of a word are reduced to their lemma: their base form, or dictionary look-up form. When one lemmatizes a text, one replaces each individual word in that text with its lemma; a text in English which has been lemmatized, then, would contain all forms of a verb represented by its infinitive, all forms of a noun by its nominative singular, and so forth.[1]
