ntlk python frenchStemmer

I an trying to initialize FrenchStemmer:

stemmer = nltk.stem.FrenchStemmer('french')

and the error is:

AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'FrenchStemmer'

Has anyone seen this error before?

That's because nltk.stem has no module called as FrenchStemmer.

The French stemmer available is in SnowballStemmer() and you can access it by 

import nltk
stemmer=nltk.stem.SnowballStemmer('french')

or by

import nltk
stemmer=nltk.stem.snowball.FrenchStemmer()
