PyMultiDictionary is a dictionary module for Python 3+ to get meanings, translations, synonyms and antonyms of words in 20 different languages. It uses educalingo.com, synonym.com, and Merriam-Webster for getting meanings, translations, synonyms, and antonyms.
PyMultiDictionary can be installed via pip, for both MacOS, Windows & Linux. Simply run:
.. code-block:: bash
$> python3 -m pip install --upgrade PyMultiDictionary
PyMultiDictionary can be utilized in 2 ways, either by creating a dictionary instance which can take words as arguments or by creating a dictionary instance with a fixed amount of words.
Create a dictionary object:
For example,
.. code-block:: python
from PyMultiDictionary import MultiDictionary
dictionary = MultiDictionary()
This will create a local instance of the MultiDictionary class, and now it can be used to get meanings, translations, etc.
For Meanings,
.. code-block:: python
print(dictionary.meaning('en', 'good'))
This will return a tuple containing the meanings of the word, in the format (word_type, word_meaning, word_wikipedia). For example, the above code will return:
.. code-block:: python
(['Noun', 'Adjective', 'Exclamation'],
'The first definition of good in the dictionary is having admirable ...',
'Good may refer to: ▪ Good and evil, the distinction between positive...')
All methods support other dictionaries, for example, 'Merriam-Webster' can be used for English words.
.. code-block:: python
from PyMultiDictionary import MultiDictionary, DICT_MW
dictionary = MultiDictionary()
print(dictionary.meaning('en', 'good', dictionary=DICT_MW))
Will return:
.. code-block:: python
{
'adjective': ['of a favorable character or tendency', ...],
'noun': ['something that is good', ...],
'adverb': ['well']
}
For Synonyms,
.. code-block:: python
print(dictionary.synonym('es', 'Bueno'))
This will return a list containing the Synonyms of the word.
For Antonyms,
.. code-block:: python
print(dictionary.antonym('en', 'Life'))
This will return a list containing the Antonyms of the word. Currently, only English is supported.
For Translations,
.. code-block:: python
print(dictionary.translate('en', 'Range'))
This will return the word 'Range' translation in 20 different languages. You can also extend the scope of the translations by providing a target language, which will use Google Translate API, for example:
.. code-block:: python
print(dictionary.translate('en', 'Range', to='ru'))
Alternatively, you can set a fixed number of words to the Dictionary Instance. This is helpful if you want to get the meanings of some words quickly without any development need.
Example:
.. code-block:: python
from PyMultiDictionary import MultiDictionary, DICT_EDUCALINGO
dictionary=MultiDictionary('hotel', 'ambush', 'nonchalant', 'perceptive')
dictionary.set_words_lang('en') # All words are English
print(dictionary.get_meanings(dictionary=DICT_EDUCALINGO)) # This print the meanings of all the words
print(dictionary.get_synonyms()) # Get synonyms list
print(dictionary.get_antonyms()) # Get antonyms
print(dictionary.get_translations()) # This will translate all words to over 20 languages
print(dictionary.get_translations(to='ru')) # This will translate all words to Russian (if Google API is available)
There are many more dictionaries to come. Just contribute to this repo!
