Each time you ‘import foo’, you are getting a module.

That results in a module object, and you can use the name ‘nltk’ to
reference that module.

> import nltk.stem

That results in a different module object, and you can use the name
‘nltk.stem’ (which is the name ‘stem’ in the namespace ‘nltk’) to
reference that module.

See the Python documentation for a good description of the import system
<URL:https://docs.python.org/3/reference/import.html>.
