Wordy

Wordy is your personal vocabulary trainer.

Meet Wordy, your new vocabulary trainer.
All you need to do is run python gre.py and Wordy will look up a random word and display the word and it's meaning as a pop notification.
Another feature, specialy for non-native speakers of the English language, is the pronunciation tool 🔉. After scraping for a word, and displaying it, Wordy will also pronounce the word and the meaning. It shall also ask you if there is another word whose pronunciation you want.

The words looked up are stored in the text file: learnt.txt within the same directory as the code gre.py

Usage

Download the zip of this repository or
git clone https://github.com/akash-vartak/Wordy
Change to root login via sudo -i Ubuntu
or su
sh install_dependencies.sh This shall install the required libraries, namely BeautifulSoup and pyttsx
Now you can easily use python gre.py and run Wordy

Libraries

I have used the BeautifulSoup4 and pyttsx libraries, for webscraping and audio respectively.

Future Work

Thus the further improvement of the script is stopped as of now. Although you are welcome to work on it as you please.
