AttributeError: 'WordList' object has no attribute 'split'

I am trying to apply Lemmatization after I tokenized my "script" column. But I get an AttributeError. I tried different thins

Here is my "script" column:

df_toklem["script"][0:5]
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
type(df_toklem["script"])

Output:

id
1    [ext, street, day, ups, man, big, pot, belly, ...
2    [credits, still, life, tableaus, lawford, n, h...
3    [fade, ext, convent, day, whispering, nuns, pr...

5    [open, theme, jaws, plane, busts, clouds, like...
Name: script, dtype: object
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
pandas.core.series.Series

And the code where I try to apply Lemmatization:

from textblob import Word
nltk.download("wordnet")
df_toklem["script"].apply(lambda x: " ".join([Word(word).lemmatize() for word in x.split()]))

ERROR:

I tried different things but unfortunately couldn't find an efficient solution. Thank you for your time.

What you are trying to do won't work because you are applying a string function (split) to a Word List. I would try to use nltk, instead, and create a new pandas column with my tokenized data:

import nltk
df_toklem['tokenized'] = df_toklem.apply(lambda row: nltk.word_tokenize(row['script']))
