Japanisch-Englisch Wörterbuchdaten über die offene Jisho.org API (kein API-Key). Der Such-Endpunkt durchsucht das Wörterbuch nach Wörtern und Kanji-Komposita und akzeptiert Englisch, Romaji, Kana oder Kanji als Eingabe; jeder Eintrag enthält seine japanischen Schreibweisen (Wort + Lesung), englische Bedeutungen mit Wortarten und Verwendungshinweisen, JLPT-Stufe und eine Markierung für häufige Wörter, mit einem optionalen Filter nur für häufige Wörter. Der Wort-Endpunkt gibt die einzelne beste – vorzugsweise häufige – Übereinstimmung für ein Schlüsselwort zurück, ideal für schnelle Nachschlagevorgänge und Sprachwerkzeuge. Echte Wörterbuchdaten direkt von Jisho, kurz zwischengespeichert für Geschwindigkeit – kein API-Key. 3 Endpunkte. Ideal für Sprachlern-Apps, Furigana- und Lesehilfen, Vokabelwerkzeuge und japanische NLP-Anreicherung.

Urban Dictionary as an API — the crowd-sourced dictionary of slang, internet terms, memes, abbreviations and pop-culture expressions. Where a formal dictionary stops, Urban Dictionary explains the words people actually use online and in conversation: youth slang, gaming and meme vocabulary, acronyms, regional expressions and the ever-changing language of the internet. This API wraps the official Urban Dictionary service into a clean JSON interface. /v1/define?term=yeet returns the community definitions for a slang term, each with a real usage example, the contributing author, the up- and down-vote counts and a computed net score, sorted best-first so the most upvoted meaning comes first (or pass defid to fetch one specific definition by its id). /v1/random returns a batch of random definitions — perfect for a slang word-of-the-day, discovery features or fun. /v1/autocomplete?term=ye returns term suggestions as the user types, each with a short preview, for building search-as-you-type experiences. Ideal for chat and social apps decoding slang, language-learning and culture tools, moderation context, trivia and entertainment bots, and word-of-the-day widgets. Definitions are user-submitted and, by the nature of the source, may contain strong or NSFW language. Data from Urban Dictionary. For formal definitions, pronunciation and etymology, pair this with a standard dictionary API.

The Japanese kanji writing system as an API — every Jōyō, Kyōiku and Jinmeiyō kanji with its on/kun readings, English meanings, JLPT level, school grade, stroke count and newspaper frequency. Look up a single kanji (e.g. 字 → grade 1, JLPT 4, readings ジ / あざ, meanings "character, letter"), find every kanji that shares a kana reading (e.g. かじ), list the vocabulary that uses a given kanji, or pull a whole standard set (Jōyō 2,136 · Kyōiku · grade-1…grade-6 · Jinmeiyō) with paging. Backed by the open KANJIDIC2 / JMdict datasets via kanjiapi.dev. Ideal for Japanese-learning and flashcard apps, SRS/Anki-style study tools, furigana and reading aids, language-education platforms and linguistics research.
