An add-on to query words using Wiktionary data taken from https://kaikki.org
Usage
The add-on provides an interface to fill notes with defintions, example sentences, etc. The interface can either be accessed from a button in the editor, or via the Edit > Bulk-define from Wiktionary menu item in the browser for bulk operations on selected notes. You can also configure shortcuts from Tools > Add-ons.
You have to download the dictionary data you want for the add-on to work. For that, find your target language in https://kaikki.org/dictionary/ and download the JSON file containing all data listed at the bottom of the language page (which has a name like kaikki.org-dictionary-Russian.json). Then in Anki, go to Tools > Wiktionary -> Import a dictionary to import the dictionary.

Thank you for your work! I find this add-on extremely useful to automatically fill cards without needing to leave Anki to copy-paste content

This add-on is great but I can’t seem to add the verb conjugation (Present, perfect and past tense of a german word) in Anki flashcards from Wiktionary. Can you please help me with this?

Incredibly helpful and efficient!

So much easier than copying and pasting from Wiktionary manually. The bulk-define feature is a life saver!
Thanks for making this add-on ^^

I wanted to like this because of how much time it would save, but unfortunately it is not very useful because you have to manually update most generated cards, since only one version of the word is ever included. For example, if a word is a noun, verb, adjective, and adverb, then only one of these forms will be included. Likewise, if a word is a noun that has four seperate entries due to having a wide-ranging meaning, only one of these will be included. I tried to use this to update a large deck

For mp3 audio edit this fetcher.py
def get_audio_url(self, word: str) -> str: data = self.get_word_json(word) sounds = data.get(“sounds”, []) for sound in sounds: if sound.get(“mp3_url”): # Check for MP3 URL return sound[“mp3_url”] elif sound.get(“ogg_url”): # Fallback to OGG if MP3 not found return sound[“ogg_url”] return ""

Great add-on, but I have a really specific problem : in french the word “page” can be actually two distinct words, one feminine, and one masculine. The add-on automatically give the definition for the feminine one, when I wanted the other one. How can this problem be fixed ?

Very useful!

There is only one problem: German orthography mandates nouns to be capitalised, while the fetch from Duolingo plugin doesn’t capitalise nouns. This renders many words not present in the Wiktionary database. Can you write a condition, where if a non-capitalised word fails to match any existing word, try capitalise it, and fetch the data of that capitalised word (supposedly a noun)

Excellent addon! I love it.
I want the definitions for the preposition “about” but it’s giving me the definitions for the word “about” the adjective. Is there a way around this? Thank you Comment from author This is on the to-do list to fix. There is currently no workaround that I’m aware of that doesn’t involve modifying the add-on.

Good work! I built my own Wiktionary screen scraper plugin two years ago but this is a much cleaner and more sustainable solution.

It doesn’t work for me, I download JSON files but after I try to import it, I get following error: “unterminated string starting at line 1 column (here is the name of random column that got idk corrupted like f.e: 678)”
EDIT1: I have tried to import Polish, English, Russian, German, Korean, Japanese and Translingual dictionares
EDIT2: I also commented on Anki Forums; sorry for my English Comment from author before post was edited Which JSON files exactly are you trying to import? Please follow
