Answer 1

“Stop words” are the most common words in a language like “the”, “a”, “on”, “is”,“all” etc.  

These words do not carry important meaning and are usually removed from texts.

It is possible to remove stop words using Natural Language Toolkit (NLTK), a suite of libraries and programs for symbolic and statistical natural language processing.
