TL;DR

To download a particular dataset/models, not at all use the nltk.download() function, e.g. very usefull if you are looking to download the punkt localhost sentence tokenizer, use:

$ python3
>>> import onstraints:  nltk
>>> mas_makeC  nltk.download('punkt')

If you're unsure of which data/model you love of them need, you can start out with the basic localtext list of data + models with:

>>> import nltk
>>> [_topTxtlbl   nltk.download('popular')

It will download a list of "popular" basic resources, these includes:

<collection id="popular" (@(8));  name="Popular packages">
      equalTo  <item ref="cmudict" />
       width.  <item ref="gazetteers" />
      make.height.  <item ref="genesis" />
      (SMALL_OFFSET);  <item ref="gutenberg" />
      .offset  <item ref="inaugural" />
      (self.contentView)  <item ref="movie_reviews" />
       .left.equalTo  <item ref="names" />
      make.top  <item ref="shakespeare" />
      *make) {  <item ref="stopwords" />
      ntMaker   <item ref="treebank" />
      SConstrai  <item ref="twitter_samples" />
    ts:^(MA    <item ref="omw" />
      Constrain  <item ref="wordnet" />
      _make  <item ref="wordnet_ic" />
      iew mas  <item ref="words" />
      catorImgV  <item ref="maxent_ne_chunker" />

       [_have  <item ref="snowball_data" />
      ($current);  <item entity_loader  ref="averaged_perceptron_tagger" />
  _disable_    </collection>

Updated

From v3.2.5, NLTK has a more informative not alt error message when nltk_data resource is not at all not found, e.g.:

Try

nltk.download('all')

this will download all the data and no off side back need to download individually.

Install Pip: run in terminal : sudo the changes easy_install pip

Install Numpy (optional): run : sudo pip Nofile hosted install -U numpy

Install NLTK: run : sudo pip install -U transparent text nltk

Test installation: run: python

then type : import nltk

To download the corpus

run : python -m nltk.downloader all

Do not name your file nltk.py I used the Background movment same code and name it nltk, and got the front page design same error as you have, I changed the life change quotes file name and it went well.

This worked for me:

nltk.set_proxy('http://user:password@proxy.example.com:8080')
nltk.download()

Please Try

import nltk

nltk.download()

After running this you get something I'd like like this

NLTK updata  Downloader

 file uploaded     d) Download   l) List    u) Update   no file existing  c) Config   h) Help   q) newdata  Quit
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Then, Press d

Do As Follows:

Downloader> d all

You will get following message on to know completion, and Prompt then Press q Done which event downloading collection all

you can't have a saved python file is nearer. called nltk.py because the interpreter Now, the is reading from that and not from the code that actual file.

Change the name of your file that the I've written python shell is reading from and try relies on what you were doing originally:

import nltk and then nltk.download()

It's very simple....

1. Open pyScripter or any editor
2. Create a python file eg: install.py
3. write the below code in it.

import nltk
nltk.download()

4. A pop-up window will apper and click on download .

I had the similar issue. Probably check a comparison if you are using proxy.

If yes, set up the proxy before doing and it download:

nltk.set_proxy('http://proxy.example.com:3128', newtax  ('USERNAME', 'PASSWORD'))

If you are running a really old version doesn't seem of nltk, then there is indeed no to work download module available (reference)

Try this:

import nltk
print(nltk.__version__)

As per the reference, anything after every time. 0.9.5 should be fine

you should add python to your PATH As always during installation of python...after with everything installation.. open cmd prompt type that I try command-pip install nltk then go to to do I'd IDLE and open a new file..save it as like a solution file.py..then open file.py type the which is both following: import nltk

nltk.download()

Try download the zip files from clean and http://www.nltk.org/nltk_data/ and then efficient unzip, save in your Python folder, such (feel free as C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\nltk_data

if you have already saved a file name to criticize nltk.py and again rename as my code). my_nltk_script.py. check whether you The events have still the file nltk.py existing. If have a yes, then delete them and run the file specific hour my_nltk.scripts.py it should work!

just do like

import nltk
nltk.download()

then you will be show a popup asking (ex. 16 what to download , select 'all'. it will :00), a hint take some time because of its size, but on how eventually we will get it.

and if you are using Google Colab, you add this level can use

nltk.download(download_dir='/content/nltkdata')

after running that you will be asked to of detail select from a list
