spacy Can't find model 'en_core_web_sm' on windows 10 and Python 3.5.3 :: Anaconda custom (64-bit)

Question

what is difference between spacy.load(\'en_core_web_sm\') and spacy.load(\'en\')? This link explains different model sizes. But i am still not clea

Answer 1

import spacy

nlp = spacy.load('/opt/anaconda3/envs/NLPENV/lib/python3.7/site-packages/en_core_web_sm/en_core_web_sm-2.3.1')

Try giving the absolute path of the package with the version as shown in the image.

It works perfectly fine.
