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.

Supported languages

  • Bengali (bn)
  • German (de)
  • English (en)
  • Spanish (es)
  • French (fr)
  • Hindi (hi)
  • Italian (it)
  • Japanese (ja)
  • Javanese (jv)
  • Korean (ko)
  • Marathi (mr)
  • Malay (ms)
  • Polish (pl)
  • Portuguese (pt)
  • Romanian (ro)
  • Russian (ru)
  • Tamil (ta)
  • Turkish (tr)
  • Ukranian (uk)
  • Chinese (zh)

Install Instructions

PyMultiDictionary can be installed via pip, for both MacOS, Windows & Linux. Simply run:

.. code-block:: bash

$> python3 -m pip install --upgrade PyMultiDictionary

Usage

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)

Supported dictionaries

  • DICT_EDUCALINGO: Meaning, synonym, translation for all languages
  • DICT_MW: Meanings (English) - Merriam-Webster
  • DICT_SYNONYMCOM: Synonyms and Antonyms (English)
  • DICT_THESAURUS: Synonyms (English)

There are many more dictionaries to come. Just contribute to this repo!
