PART A – Micro-Project Proposal

English dictionary using python

1.0 Brief Introduction

In this micro-project we will prepare a GUI for an English Dictionary.
We are going to create GUI using tkinter module the GUI having search bar to search words and it
has display area to show its meaning.
We use the method json to read and load data from Json file that contains word definitions.
We use method pyttsx for text-to-speech functionality to enable the program to speak the word and
meaning.
We use method difflib to find close matches for words that are not found in the dictionary and to
provide suggestions to the user.

2.0 Aim of the Micro-Project ( in about 1 to 2 Sentences)

This Micro-Project aims at:
The aim of this project is to build an English Dictionary project for the students to know meaning of
the words in easy way.

3.0 Intended Course Outcome

a) Develop functions for given problem.
b) Develop python program to demonstrate use of Operators.
4.0 Literature Review
The age of the Internet brought online dictionaries to the desktop and, more recently, to the
smart phone. David Skinner in 2013 noted that "Among the top ten lookups on Merriam-Webster
Online at this moment are holistic, pragmatic, caveat, esoteric and bourgeois. Teaching users about
words they don't already know has been, historically, an aim of lexicography, and modern
dictionaries do this well.
A dictionary is a listing of lexemes from the lexicon of one or more specific languages, often
arranged alphabetically (or by radical and stroke for ideographic languages), which may include
information on definitions, usage, etymologies, pronunciations, translation, etc.[1][2][3] It is a
lexicographical reference that shows inter-relationships among the data.[4]

A broad distinction is made between general and specialized dictionaries. Specialized dictionaries
include words in specialist fields, rather than a complete range of words in the language. Lexical
items that describe concepts in specific fields are usually called terms instead of words, although

4
there is no consensus whether lexicology and terminology are two different fields of study. In theory,
general dictionaries are supposed[citation needed] to be semasiological, mapping word to definition,
while specialized dictionaries are supposed to be onomasiological, first identifying concepts and then
establishing the terms used to designate them. In practice, the two approaches are used for both types.
[5] There are other types of dictionaries that do not fit neatly into the above distinction, for instance
bilingual (translation) dictionaries, dictionaries of synonyms (thesauri), and rhyming dictionaries.
The word dictionary (unqualified) is usually understood to refer to a general purpose monolingual
dictionary.[6]

There is also a contrast between prescriptive or descriptive dictionaries; the former reflect what is
seen as correct use of the language while the latter reflect recorded actual use. Stylistic indications
(e.g. "informal" or "vulgar") in many modern dictionaries are also considered by some to be less than
objectively descriptive.[7]

PART B – Micro-Project Report

Title of Micro-Project
1.0 Rationale
Dictionary in Python is an unordered collection of data values, used to store data values like
a map, which unlike other Data Types that hold only single value as an element, Dictionary
holds key:value pair. Key value is provided in the dictionary to make it more optimized. Each key-
value pair in a Dictionary is separated by a colon :, whereas each key is separated by a ‘comma’.
A Dictionary in Python works similar to the Dictionary in a real world. Keys of a Dictionary must
be unique and of immutable data type such as Strings, Integers, and tuples, but the key-values can
be repeated and be of any type.
In this micro-project we will prepare a GUI for an English Dictionary.
We are going to create GUI using tkinter module the GUI having search bar to search words and it
has display area to show its meaning.
We use the method json to read and load data from Json file that contains word definitions.
We use method pyttsx for text-to-speech functionality to enable the program to speak the word and
meaning.
We use method difflib to find close matches for words that are not found in the dictionary and to
provide suggestions to the user.

2.0 Course Outcomes Addressed

a) Develop functions for given problem.

b) Develop python program to demonstrate use of Operators.

6.0 Outputs of the Micro-Project

13
7.0 Skill Developed / learning out of this Micro-Project
In this project we learned how to create a python English dictionary.
In this project we learnt about various libraries like pyttsx3,Tkinter.
We also learned how to add json files in python file.

8.0 Applications of this Micro-Project

Following are the applications of dictionary:
1) Learn English effectively.
2) improve your English vocabulary.
3) Not uses pages it is stored in database so it saves money and trees and produces efficiency.
4) highly feasible
5) improve your communication 
9.0 Area of Future Improvement
Primarily used for looking up unknown words in reading, writing, and vocabulary learning
activities, online dictionaries have been considered highly feasible, individual learning
materials.
Online dictionaries such as the 'type-in' or 'pop-up' types are presently in use, to facilitate
learners' efforts in language learning; making it an easier exercise for students.
So software dictionaries are considered to be very beneficial in future.
