>> craziness -> crazi
>> horse -> hors
>> adventure -> adventur
>> capital -> capit
>> troubled -> troubl
>> investigation -> investig

These results are correct: the stemming does not generate proper English
words, but brings together words that are related,

horses -> hors
horse -> hors
horsing-> hors

and so on.
