wiktextract VS WiktionaryParser

Great work

I'm working on similar dictionary app and found wiktionary insanely usable as dictionary source.

Here is one more project aiming to make wiktionary data usable as json data structure: https://github.com/tatuylonen/wiktextract.

It has a link to a site https://kaikki.org/ which hosts dictionary data dumps.

Hm, that would be a good idea... if I didn't have to download so much data (over 20GB for just audio?!). But, looking at the Python library that processed those dumps (https://github.com/tatuylonen/wiktextract), which is more manageable, using it would involve getting the WikiMedia dump file for every word on the list, then parsing them for the relevant data and what follows is mostly the same, except I end up with a bunch of cached files.

Many parsers are available. https://github.com/tatuylonen/wiktextract

I'd probably try pulling from Wiktionary, there looks to be a Python package that can do it here.

And the json is built with https://github.com/tatuylonen/wiktextract whom I have to thank

Today I just randomly searched up Wiktionary parser and lo and behold a perfectly working library appears in the search results. Yea all my problems are solved, but I'm empty inside. I could've just Googled and save my 2 weeks worth of effort for the rest of the project.

Haha no doing them by hand would be way too tedious. I used this library to scrape Wiktionary and queried every word in your Noun list. Note that some items like "die Leute" don't have a plural.
