Hi Chris, Although you might find it difficult to work with, the way the tags and text are returned makes sense. To avoid splitting the word, the program would need to make a judgement call regarding which text is a word and belongs together and which of the tags to ignore. You can probably get what you want by using something like the StringBean class which extracts just the text. I think you'll find the output of the StringBean will have the word "northern" rather than separating it, i.e. it doesn't inject any whitespace. You can use similar code in your program to paste the text back together.
