Answer 1

You're passing a list to word_tokenize which you can't.

The solution is to wrap your logic in another for-loop,

data_list = ['the gamers playing games','higher scores','sports']
for words in data_list:
    words = tokenize.word_tokenize(words)
    for w in words:
        print(ps.stem(w))

>>>>the
gamer
play
game
higher
score
sport
