'''Tokenize English text, using a scheme that differs from the Penn Treebank 3
scheme in several important respects:
* Whitespace is added as tokens, except for single spaces. e.g.,
>>> tokenize(u'\\nHello \\tThere').strings
[u'\\n', u'Hello', u' ', u'\\t', u'There']
* Contractions are normalized, e.g.
>>> tokenize(u"isn't ain't won't he's").strings
[u'is', u'not', u'are', u'not', u'will', u'not', u'he', u"__s"]
* Hyphenated words are split, with the hyphen preserved, e.g.:
>>> tokenize(u'New York-based').strings
[u'New', u'York', u'-', u'based']
Other improvements:
* Full unicode support
* Email addresses, URLs, European-formatted dates and other numeric entities not
found in the PTB are tokenized correctly
* Heuristic handling of word-final periods (PTB expects sentence boundary detection
as a pre-process before tokenization.)
Take care to ensure your training and run-time data is tokenized according to the
same scheme. Tokenization problems are a major cause of poor performance for
NLP tools. If you're using a pre-trained model, the :py:mod:`spacy.ptb3` module
provides a fully Penn Treebank 3-compliant tokenizer.
