assign list of string to a taggable field

I have a list s where,

s = 'The name of my country is Bangladesh'

I converted the string into list of strings like below:

ss = s.split()

Again, in my database model I have a field keywords

keywords = TaggableManager(_('keywords'), blank=True, help_text=keywords_help_text)

I want to assign the list of string ss to the field keywords. I tried below:

keywords = ss

but I got error. I want to assign the list of string to my taggfield.

Seems that you are doing it the wrong way.

You have some class in which you have this keyword field which is efffectively a many to many relationship with another model (something like 'Tags')

How you use it is:

lets say the class is Fruits then you will have to take the instance of that class say Mango(the object you want to create keywords for)

Then you use:

Mango.keywords.add(ss)

or 

self.keywords.add(ss)
