Meaning of "word_ngrams max length of word ngram [1]"

[Zexceed]

Hi,

Having issues understanding this hyperparameter "word_ngrams max length of word ngram [1]"

1) Does this mean if I set it to 0, this is a pure character n gram embedding? (i.e. word vector not added)

2) What does it mean if I set it to 2 or 3? 

Kindly share some examples for understanding.

Thanks

My understanding, for example ,we have sentence piece like : " the model is a nice ... ", when we set word_ngram = 2, we have :  the_model model_is  is_a ..., but if we set maxn=2, it generates <t th e> <m mo od de el l> ...

in a word: word_ngram is the word level, and maxn /minn is the character level

correct me if i misunderstood!
