title: Morphology
tag: class
source: spacy/morphology.pyx
---
Store the possible morphological analyses for a language, and index them by
hash. To save space on each token, tokens only know the hash of their
morphological analysis, so queries of morphological attributes are delegated to
this class. See [`MorphAnalysis`](/api/morphology#morphanalysis) for the
container storing a single morphological analysis.
## Morphology.\_\_init\_\_ {id="init",tag="method"}
Create a `Morphology` object.
> #### Example
>
> ```python
> from spacy.morphology import Morphology
>
> morphology = Morphology(strings)
> ```
| Name | Description |
| --------- | --------------------------------- |
| `strings` | The string store. ~~StringStore~~ |
## Morphology.add {id="add",tag="method"}
Insert a morphological analysis in the morphology table, if not already present.
The morphological analysis may be provided in the Universal Dependencies
[FEATS](https://universaldependencies.org/format.html#morphological-annotation)
format as a string or in the tag map dictionary format. Returns the hash of the
new analysis.
> #### Example
>
> ```python
> feats = "Feat1=Val1|Feat2=Val2"
> hash = nlp.vocab.morphology.add(feats)
> assert hash == nlp.vocab.strings[feats]
> ```
| Name | Description |
| ---------- | ------------------------------------------------ |
| `features` | The morphological features. ~~Union[Dict, str]~~ |
## Morphology.get {id="get",tag="method"}
> #### Example
>
> ```python
> feats = "Feat1=Val1|Feat2=Val2"
> hash = nlp.vocab.morphology.add(feats)
> assert nlp.vocab.morphology.get(hash) == feats
> ```

representation to a dictionary of features and values in the same format as the
tag map.
