How can we search meaning for a word in html text. when the searched in the input box

Question

I am trying to write a code in which we have to find all the synonyms of the word. The word has to be written in an input type of a form and on submit lists all the synonyms.

Answer 1

To do that, you would need a thesaurus. The best bet is to use an API to retrieve that somehow. For instance, you could bind the form's submit event to a function which fetches data from the Big Huge Thesaurus and formats that data back into the page.

Answer 2

From your question i understand that you need to display synonyms for a word. for that you need to hit a Dictionary API.

So can you try below link

https://www.wordsapi.com/mashape/words/searchWord?when=2018-02-08T04:12:05.603Z&encrypted=8cfdb282e722919bea9907bfeb58bfbbaeb0280936ff94b8

in place of searchWord you need to put your word.

Then it will return a JSON with meaning and synonyms of that word.
