+                    Yomichan's internal parser is a simple algorithm which can parse sentences using the installed dictionaries.
+                    It works by repeatedly detecting the longest term at the start of the sentence and advancing until no text remains.
+                    This provides decent results for the general case, but since grammatical structure is not taken into account,
+                    it can sometimes yield incorrect segmentation.

                 <p>
                     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 Yomichan's internal parser.

+                <p>
                     In order for Yomichan to use it, both MeCab and a native messaging component must be installed.
                     A setup guide can be found <a href="https://github.com/siikamiika/yomichan-mecab-installer/blob/master/README.md" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">here</a>.
