Want to add a word lookup feature to your vocabulary app, reading plugin, or chatbot? Pass one English word and instantly get a detailed "mini dictionary".

Overview

Pass the English word you want to look up, and the endpoint returns a comprehensive entry. The structure is highly dynamic — if a word has no common phrases or synonyms, those fields are simply omitted so the frontend can render leanly.

What's Returned

- Phonetics & pronunciation (phonetics): UK and US phonetics, plus pronunciation audio URLs you can play directly on the frontend.

- Chinese definitions (definitions): translations grouped by part of speech.

- English definitions (englishdefinitions): native English explanations with short examples.

- Word forms (wordforms): plural, past tense, comparative, and other inflections.

- Phrases & synonyms (phrases / synonyms): common collocations and synonyms grouped by part of speech.

- Bilingual examples (examples): English-Chinese example sentences in real context.
