A trainable pipeline component to predict morphological features and
coarse-grained POS tags following the Universal Dependencies
[UPOS ](https://universaldependencies.org/u/pos/index.html ) and

## Config and implementation {#config}
2020-07-08 11:34:35 +00:00
2020-07-27 16:11:45 +00:00
The default config is defined by the pipeline component factory and describes
how the component should be configured. You can override its settings via the
`config` argument on [`nlp.add_pipe` ](/api/language#add_pipe ) or in your
[`config.cfg` for training ](/usage/training#config ). See the
[model architectures ](/api/architectures ) documentation for details on the
architectures and their arguments and hyperparameters.
> #### Example
>
> ```python
> from spacy.pipeline.morphologizer import DEFAULT_MORPH_MODEL
> config = {"model": DEFAULT_MORPH_MODEL}
> nlp.add_pipe("morphologizer", config=config)
> ```
