This can likely be super simplified to:

# install the icu library; must be version 54.1
conda install -c ccordoba12 icu=54.1 -y &&


# install notebook related libraries
conda install ipykernel numpy scipy  -y &&

# create your kernel
python -m ipykernel install --user &&

# run easy_install of pyicu
# pip installs pyicu with no error, but easy_install does something different
easy_install pyicu &&

pip install morfessor &&
pip install pycld2 &&

# now install polyglot
pip install polyglot &&

python -c "from polyglot.text import Text; a=Text('Linwood Creekmore visited Washington,D.C.'); print(dir(a))"

The simplest way to install by far:

conda install -c conda-forge pyicu morfessor icu -y && pip install pycld2 polyglot
