Adding custom stopwords in R tm

corpus, r, stop-words, text-mining, tm

Solution

`stopwords` just provides you with a vector of words, just `c`ombine your own ones to this.

tm_map(abs, removeWords, c(stopwords("english"),"my","custom","words"))

Problem

I have a Corpus in R using the `tm` package. I am applying the `removeWords` function to remove stopwords ``` tm_map(abs, removeWords, stopwords("english")) ``` Is there a way to add my own custom stop words to this list?
