I’m looking for a way to access iOS dictionary programmatically. What I need is to retrieve the list of the words of a particular language from inside a custom app.
Is it possible? Are there any API that provide this (or similar) functionality?
I’ve checked Apple documentation but didn’t find anything useful…May someone point me to the right direction?
I don’t think there is a public API to access the embedded Dictionary. The closest is using UITextChecker but that may not satisfy your needs
As an alternative, you could find and embed a Word Dictionary in the Language you want? It may require some extra work
