title: Vocab
teaser: A storage class for vocabulary and other data shared across a language
tag: class
source: spacy/vocab.pyx
---
The `Vocab` object provides a lookup table that allows you to access
[`Lexeme`](/api/lexeme) objects, as well as the
[`StringStore`](/api/stringstore). It also owns underlying C-data that is shared
between `Doc` objects.
<Infobox variant="warning">
Note that a `Vocab` instance is not static. It increases in size as texts with
new tokens are processed.
</Infobox>
## Vocab.\_\_init\_\_ {id="init",tag="method"}
Create the vocabulary.
> #### Example
>
> ```python
> from spacy.strings import StringStore
> from spacy.vocab import Vocab
> vocab = Vocab(strings=StringStore(["hello", "world"]))
> ```
| Name | Description |
| ------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `lex_attr_getters` | A dictionary mapping attribute IDs to functions to compute them. Defaults to `None`. ~~Optional[Dict[str, Callable[[str], Any]]]~~ |
| `strings` | A [`StringStore`](/api/stringstore) that maps strings to hash values. ~~Optional[StringStore]~~ |
| `lookups` | A [`Lookups`](/api/lookups) that stores the `lexeme_norm` and other large lookup tables. Defaults to `None`. ~~Optional[Lookups]~~ |
| `oov_prob` | The default OOV probability. Defaults to `-20.0`. ~~float~~ |
| `writing_system` | A dictionary describing the language's writing system. Typically provided by [`Language.Defaults`](/api/language#defaults). ~~Dict[str, Any]~~ |
| `get_noun_chunks` | A function that yields base noun phrases used for [`Doc.noun_chunks`](/api/doc#noun_chunks). ~~Optional[Callable[[Union[Doc, Span], Iterator[Tuple[int, int, int]]]]]~~ |
## Vocab.\_\_len\_\_ {id="len",tag="method"}
Get the current number of lexemes in the vocabulary.
> #### Example
>
> ```python
> doc = nlp("This is a sentence.")
> assert len(nlp.vocab) > 0
> ```
| Name | Description |
| ----------- | ------------------------------------------------ |
| **RETURNS** | The number of lexemes in the vocabulary. ~~int~~ |
## Vocab.\_\_getitem\_\_ {id="getitem",tag="method"}
Retrieve a lexeme, given an int ID or a string. If a previously unseen string is
given, a new lexeme is created and stored.
> #### Example
>
> ```python
> apple = nlp.vocab.strings["apple"]
> assert nlp.vocab[apple] == nlp.vocab["apple"]
> ```
| Name | Description |
| -------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `id_or_string` | The hash value of a word, or its string. ~~Union[int, str]~~ |
| **RETURNS** | The lexeme indicated by the given ID. ~~Lexeme~~ |
## Vocab.\_\_iter\_\_ {id="iter",tag="method"}
Iterate over the lexemes in the vocabulary.
> #### Example
>
> ```python
> stop_words = (lex for lex in nlp.vocab if lex.is_stop)
> ```
| Name | Description |
| ---------- | -------------------------------------- |
| **YIELDS** | An entry in the vocabulary. ~~Lexeme~~ |
## Vocab.\_\_contains\_\_ {id="contains",tag="method"}
Check whether the string has an entry in the vocabulary. To get the ID for a
given string, you need to look it up in
[`vocab.strings`](/api/vocab#attributes).
> #### Example
>
> ```python
> apple = nlp.vocab.strings["apple"]
> oov = nlp.vocab.strings["dskfodkfos"]
> assert apple in nlp.vocab
> assert oov not in nlp.vocab
> ```
| Name | Description |
| ----------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- |
| `string` | The ID string. ~~str~~ |
| **RETURNS** | Whether the string has an entry in the vocabulary. ~~bool~~ |
## Vocab.add_flag {id="add_flag",tag="method"}
Set a new boolean flag to words in the vocabulary. The `flag_getter` function
will be called over the words currently in the vocab, and then applied to new
words as they occur. You'll then be able to access the flag value on each token,
using `token.check_flag(flag_id)`.
> #### Example
>
> ```python
> def is_my_product(text):
> products = ["spaCy", "Thinc", "displaCy"]
> return text in products
>
> MY_PRODUCT = nlp.vocab.add_flag(is_my_product)
> doc = nlp("I like spaCy")
> assert doc[2].check_flag(MY_PRODUCT) == True
> ```
| Name | Description |
| ------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `flag_getter` | A function that takes the lexeme text and returns the boolean flag value. ~~Callable[[str], bool]~~ |
| `flag_id` | An integer between `1` and `63` (inclusive), specifying the bit at which the flag will be stored. If `-1`, the lowest available bit will be chosen. ~~int~~ |
| **RETURNS** | The integer ID by which the flag value can be checked. ~~int~~ |
## Vocab.reset_vectors {id="reset_vectors",tag="method",version="2"}
Drop the current vector table. Because all vectors must be the same width, you
have to call this to change the size of the vectors. Only one of the `width` and
`shape` keyword arguments can be specified.
> #### Example
>
> ```python
> nlp.vocab.reset_vectors(width=300)
> ```
| Name | Description |
| -------------- | ---------------------- |
| _keyword-only_ | |
| `width` | The new width. ~~int~~ |
| `shape` | The new shape. ~~int~~ |
## Vocab.prune_vectors {id="prune_vectors",tag="method",version="2"}
Reduce the current vector table to `nr_row` unique entries. Words mapped to the
discarded vectors will be remapped to the closest vector among those remaining.
For example, suppose the original table had vectors for the words:
`['sat', 'cat', 'feline', 'reclined']`. If we prune the vector table to, two
rows, we would discard the vectors for "feline" and "reclined". These words
would then be remapped to the closest remaining vector – so "feline" would have
the same vector as "cat", and "reclined" would have the same vector as "sat".
The similarities are judged by cosine. The original vectors may be large, so the
cosines are calculated in minibatches to reduce memory usage.
> #### Example
>
> ```python
> nlp.vocab.prune_vectors(10000)
> assert len(nlp.vocab.vectors) <= 10000
> ```
| Name | Description |
| ------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `nr_row` | The number of rows to keep in the vector table. ~~int~~ |
| `batch_size` | Batch of vectors for calculating the similarities. Larger batch sizes might be faster, while temporarily requiring more memory. ~~int~~ |
| **RETURNS** | A dictionary keyed by removed words mapped to `(string, score)` tuples, where `string` is the entry the removed word was mapped to, and `score` the similarity score between the two words. ~~Dict[str, Tuple[str, float]]~~ |
## Vocab.deduplicate_vectors {id="deduplicate_vectors",tag="method",version="3.3"}
> #### Example
>
> ```python
> nlp.vocab.deduplicate_vectors()
> ```
Remove any duplicate rows from the current vector table, maintaining the
mappings for all words in the vectors.
## Vocab.get_vector {id="get_vector",tag="method",version="2"}
Retrieve a vector for a word in the vocabulary. Words can be looked up by string
or hash value. If the current vectors do not contain an entry for the word, a
0-vector with the same number of dimensions
([`Vocab.vectors_length`](#attributes)) as the current vectors is returned.
> #### Example
>
> ```python
> nlp.vocab.get_vector("apple")
> ```

different aspects of the object. If needed, you can exclude them from
serialization by passing in the string names via the `exclude` argument.
