Django prepopulated_fields removes stop words from slugs?

I am trying to automatically generate slugs to use in URLs of a Django app.

So far I have achieved this using prepopulated_fields in admin.py.

However, slugs generated with prepopulated_fields do not include stop words (i.e., the string "I love to code" has slug "love-code").

Is there a way to automatically generate slugs that also include stop words?

Slug is generated on fronted using prepopulate.js function and does not have any configuration options, you could add your custom javascript instead

Or

forget about preopopulated_fields and instead override save method on Headword model and generate slug using slugify() something in a line of

from django.utils.text import slugify

class Headword(models.Model):
    ...

    def save(self, *args, **kwargs):

        self.slug = slugify(self.headword, allow_unicode=True)
        super().save(*args, **kwargs)
