title: Adding words to nltk stoplist
body: <p>I have some code that removes stop words from my data set, as the stop list doesn't seem to remove a majority of the words I would like it too, I'm looking to add words to this stop list so that it will remove them for this case.
  The code i'm using to remove stop words is:</p>
  
  <pre><code>word_list2 = [w.strip() for w in word_list if w.strip() not in nltk.corpus.stopwords.words('english')]
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I'm unsure of the correct syntax for adding words and can't seem to find the correct one anywhere. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.</p>
