Hello everyone,
I want to explore the domain of natural language processing and want to know where I can start.
Can you guys suggest me a possible road map for an absolute beginner to NLP?
I was thinking of starting NLP from chapter 10th of fastbook.
Thanks.

fastai-nlp is a good way to start.

That should be fine as well. You can always revisit Traditional NLP methods.

Be careful with that notebook. The default code uses a batch size of 128, which may not fit into your available VRAM. You might want to halve it to be safe.
Modern NLP uses Deep Learning. I would start with https://course.fast.ai/ to learn the basics of DL (which also covers NLP use cases), and move on to fastai-nlp course later on.
Yeah I am following the same approach. Also I found that Fastbook to be very resourceful.

----> 1 tokz.vocab[‘_of’]
KeyError: ‘_of’
Here’s my notebook: Getting started with NLP for absolute beginners | Kaggle
