📚 vocabs


📚 A lightweight online dictionary integration to the command line. No browsers. No paperbacks.

Setting Up

$ pip install vocabs

Features

📆 Word of the Day!

📈 Trending words!

❓ Directly query words from the command line.

📓 Save words to your local dictionary.

📝 Add notes to saved words.

🎮 Interactive word game to hone your vocabulary skills.

So how is this different from dict ?

dict is the client for DICT, or the Dictionary Server Protocol on Unix-like platforms. It is used to query natural language dictionaries without firing up a bloaty browser, which tremendously slows down your workflow.

Vocab aims to do the same as dict, only with some differences:

  • Less verbose result (since Vocab only uses one source).
  • Can save words to local client dictionary pickle file.
  • Can add notes to a saved word.
  • Includes a interactive word-quiz feature.
  • With colors 🎨!

All in all, Vocab is a great tool for fast word queries with easy-to-read definitions, and a good support for ESL users.
