Dictionary = { 'apple': 'An edible fruit ', 'ant': 'A bug that bites' 'another': 'One more' } You can fill in the rest of the words. Good luck

Make dictionary of words and define meanings of that word as value of word and take user input to enter word.

Example: Take a dictionary name, some variable like Animals={ 'herbivores': 'cow', 'carnivores':'lion', 'omivores':'crow' } First words like herbivores, carnivores, omnivores are called "keys". Second words like cow,lion,crow are called "values". Each key has value. Similarly you can write nested dictionaries.

What is it you want exactly ? You mean a list of words and their definitions ?

bharathkanna well you technically can just write them down one by one... by it would be useless. I would say you use some modules and frameworks, but you're still a beginner, better stick to the basics

WhyFry you mean beautifulsoup ? Also, I don't think a beginner (who also has no experience in web scraping) would be able to do so. But indeed it is the correct way to do it, other than the module I shared

WhyFry it's not about practice only, one must have strong basics before moving on to other things. In you case, web scraping requires some knowledge of html, which would only be confusing for someone who has just started learning python.

You can add dictionary using following Syntex i.e., Dictionaryname={element:value, element:value, element:value, element:value, } You can use Single quote ('element') if the element or value is string. You can execute dictionary by using following Syntex i.e., Dictionaryname [element]
