An asynchronous wrapper for freeDictionaryAPI.
IMPORTANT: This is not my API. This is merely a wrapper. Any issues with the API should be reported at the API's repository.
First install the package using either:
pip install asyncdictionarypython -m pip install asyncdictionary
import asyncdictionary
# create an instance of `Client`
dictionary = asyncdictionary.Client()If you have a ClientSession, you may pass that in as a kwarg instead.
This is essentially all the information that a raw request to the API will return to you. Gives everything that the http API will give you including the definitions and phonetics.
- word (str) - The word you want the information of.
This returns the definitions and the part of speech of that definition. Does NOT give the phonetics or the word itself.
- word (str) - The word you want the meaning of.
