The available languages are English, French, German, Hebrew, Italian, Spanish, Chinese, and Russian. With a database in excess of two trillion words, it is the largest corpus of linguistics information in existence. In spite of concerns about the reliability of metadata used in Ngram Viewer, it is still viewed as a valuable resource for research into long-term cultural trends.", }
