| To add a new language to spaCy, you'll need to
| #[strong modify the library's code]. The easiest way to do this is to
| clone the #[+src(gh("spaCy")) repository] and #[strong build spaCy from source].
| For more information on this, see the #[+a("/usage") installation guide].
| Unlike spaCy's core, which is mostly written in Cython, all language
| data is stored in regular Python files. This means that you won't have to
| rebuild anything in between you can simply make edits and reload spaCy
| to test them.

| Obviously, there are lots of ways you can organise your code when
| you implement your own language data. This guide will focus on
| how it's done within spaCy. For full language support, you'll
| need to create a #[code Language] subclass, define custom
| #[strong language data], like a stop list and tokenizer
| exceptions and test the new tokenizer. Once the language is set
| up, you can #[strong build the vocabulary], including word
| frequencies, Brown clusters and word vectors. Finally, you can
| #[strong train the tagger and parser], and save the model to a
| directory.
p
| For some languages, you may also want to develop a solution for
| lemmatization and morphological analysis.
