I am running

```
prodigy terms.teach artists pt_core_news_sm --seeds "anitta, wesley safadão, dj dennis"

Initialising with 3 seed terms: dj dennis, wesley safadão, anitta

✨ Starting the web server at http://localhost:8080 ...
Open the app in your browser and start annotating!

```

And I am getting the following error:

```
ValueError: [E010] Word vectors set to length 0. This may be because you don't have a model installed or loaded, or because your model doesn't include word vectors. For more info, see the docs:

```

As the error message says, the `pt_core_news_sm` model has no word vectors. You can also check this in the URL mentioned in the error message, for example: [https://spacy.io/usage/models/pt](https://spacy.io/usage/models/pt)

If you want to use vectors, you can either find other pretrained vectors like the fastText vectors and [add them to the blank model](https://spacy.io/usage/vectors-similarity#converting), or train your own on raw data (using GloVe, fastText, Gensim etc.).
