I'm looking for an aplication / dictionary that would find other forms of the word in english. E.g. I would give word "love" it will returns loved, loving, lovely etc. Have you ever met something like that ?
It's called 'stemming'. Or rather, stemming is going the other way - reducing words to their basic form - but it gets you where you want to go.
I don't know of any software or databases for doing stemming, but knowing what it's called, it should be easier for you to find out about them yourself. It's an old and honourable field, and there's a lot to read.
