title: Python: NLTK and TextBlob in french
body: <p>I'm using NLTK and TextBlob to find nouns and noun phrases in a text:</p>
  
  <pre><code>from textblob import TextBlob 
  import nltk
  
  blob = TextBlob(text)
  print(blob.noun_phrases)
  tokenized = nltk.word_tokenize(text)
  nouns = [word for (word, pos) in nltk.pos_tag(tokenized) if is_noun(pos)]
  print(nouns)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This works fine if my text is in english but it's not good anymore if my text is in french. </p>
  
  <p>I was unable to find how to adapt this code for french language, how do I do that?</p>
  
  <p>And is there a list somewhere of all the languages that are possible to parse?</p>
