Natural Language Syntax Highlight Plus

Fork of: nl-syntax-highlighting

This plugin is a fork by MichelleGDyason that extends the original Natural Language Syntax Highlighting plugin for Obsidian.

Changes in this fork

• Added highlighting for articles (a, an, the)
• Added highlighting for pronouns (he, she, they, etc.)
• Added highlighting for prepositions (to, from, with, etc.)
• Added highlighting for predicates (parts of a sentence containing a verb and stating something about the subject)
• Fixed TypeScript typing issues for CodeMirror 6 compatibility
• Renamed the plugin to Natural Language Syntax Highlight Plus to avoid conflicts
• Added new toggles and color options for the new parts of speech (if implemented in settings)

Themes

This fork introduces user-selectable syntax highlight themes: • Minimal – low-noise writing mode • High-Contrast – accessibility and projection • Teaching Mode – pedagogical highlighting for learning grammar

Future plans

• Add more parts of speech
• Add more options for customizing the highlighting (underline, bold, etc.)
• Add support for other languages
• Add support for Obsidian mobile
• Add support for Obsidian canvas

Acknowledgements

• The original plugin was created by artisticat1 and was the inspiration for this fork.
• This plugin uses the compromise natural language processing library to detect parts of speech.

Natural Language Syntax Highlighting

A plugin for Obsidian.md that highlights adjectives, nouns, adverbs, verbs, and conjunctions in the editor. Inspired by iA Writer.

Colours can be customised in the plugin settings.

The highlighting can be toggled on or off at any time via the command Natural Language Syntax Highlighting: Toggle on/off in the Command palette.
