    You guys all know that dictionary words, show how to pronounce them.
    My question of the day is, "How might I go about getting the pronunciation of a word, using a bukkit plugin?" Any dictionary apis with that?

    Yes, I have done that.
    And yes, someone has sent me that link before.
    And yes, I unshorten all my urls before clicking.
    And yes, that doesn't work.

    I know that JWKTL (Wiktionary) can retrieve all words and definitions .. I don't think it can do pronunciations though.


    Maybe you could manually do it for all 300,000+ words in the English language :D

    BlueMustache You could find a website that has them and read off that website using HtmlUnit

    Or you can just get a huge text file and use that

    Or just...Use what AoH_Ruthless mythbusterma suggested and find a specific API for this (Which is what I would recommend)

    The link we posted is actually an API specifically for wiktionary, which would probably be the best solution for anyone else trying to fo spmrhting like this.
