The stemmers do not perform stopword removal.
We provide files of suggested stop-words (see
http://snowball.tartarus.org/algorithms/italian/stop.txt for the italian
one), but these are not integrated into the stemming algorithms. It is up
to you to write code to perform stop-word removal separately.
