Specific to Spanish

Things that are only true of Spanish in NoaLingua

  • Unlike French and Italian, Spanish UniMorph also covers nouns (107,392) and adjectives (40,277), so declension lookups work rather than silently returning nothing.
  • Spanish is half of the default pair — a fresh install starts on English → Spanish.
  • The Spanish Wiktionary pack is 85 MB.

Common questions about NoaLingua

Yes. 50 MB · verbs (1,048,576), nouns (107,392) and adjectives (40,277) Conjugation and declension tables open at the exact form you clicked.

Does Spanish work offline?

Yes, once the packs finish downloading. Expect to leave the extension running 15 to 30 minutes after choosing your languages.

What does “not documented” mean in the table?

That we have not verified it ourselves, so we will not claim it either way. It is not the same as “no”. Several of those columns depend on data Chrome owns and does not publish per language.
