That seems to be working then. You should be able to get a list of words with
wordlists.words('IM50re.txt')

I have no idea. Is IM50re.txt a plain text corpus? What is a package?
What is a lemmatizer?
I don't know anything about NLTK, I'm just good at reading manuals.
You have to give me more help than that. What have you tried? Can you
find an example that is similar to what you want to do? Don't assume I
know what you are talking about :-)
