To install MorphMan download the latest .zip archive from the here and extract all files to your Documents/Anki/addons. Your folder structure should look like this:

  • Documents/Anki/addons/morph.py
  • Documents/Anki/addons/morph/*.py

This plugin works for following languages:

  • Every language that uses spaces to separate its words (English, Russian, Spanish, etc.).
  • Chinese. MorphMan includes Jieba internally, nothing needs to be installed.
  • Japanese. In this case you will additionally need to install the Japanese Support plugin in Anki.
  • More languages can be easily added if that is requested and morpheme-splitting-tools are available for it.

After restarting Anki you should see an entry called morphman under Tools -> Add-ons. You will find some tips on the Usage page.

Japanese cards on a 64-bit-only Linux distribution

The Japanese Support plugin does not work on 64-bit-only Linux distributions. You will have to install mecab (tool to split japanese sentences into its morphemes) and its dictionary.

Installation...

  • ...on Arch Linux: mecab-ipadic from AUR
  • ...on Ubuntu (probably unnecessary for current versions): see here (untested)
  • ...from source (if your japanese is good): mecab source.
