> Since the owner requested forks be uniquely named, we have chosen a new name: _yomitan_. (_-tan_ is an honorific used for anthropomorphic moe characters.) While we've renamed the codebase and made judicious use of find-and-replace, it is entirely the hard work of foosoft and numerous other open source contributors from 2016-2023 and we do not claim any credit.

### Parse sentences using MeCab

[MeCab](https://taku910.github.io/mecab/) is a third-party program which uses its own dictionaries and parsing algorithm to decompose sentences into individual words. MeCab may provide more accurate parsing results than Yomitan's internal parser.

In order for Yomitan to use it, both MeCab and a native messaging component must be installed.
A setup guide can be found [here](https://github.com/themoeway/yomitan-mecab-installer/blob/master/README.md).
