Hello @infinyte7,

Happy to see you used my audio-cmn repository :)

1. Shtooka Recorder has become LinguaLibre in 2017. We are back on track to record 100s thousands new audios for 100+ languages. See:

• Downloadable datasets : https://lingualibre.org/datasets/ (list will be updated in March 2020)
• List of languages and files in them https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Lingua_Libre_pronunciation
• Example of filenames : LL-Q652_(ita)-{username}-{recorded_word}.wav

2. Wikidata and MediaWiki APIs allows to fetch definitions in multiples languages. See screenshot below: the right half is fetched via API call over wiktionaries.

Also, I'am just starting to think about LinguaLibre Anki Decks Maker repository, which would:

1. Given one language (ex: ITA Italian)
2. Given one associated .zip file: Q385-ita-Italian.zip.
3. Extract the list of audio filenames then the list of words recorded
4. Fetch definition via mediawiki API
5. Code an Anki Decks Maker which use available words, audios/media, definitions data to create elegant Anki decks.

@LinguaLibre volunteers have knowledge to create the steps 1 to 4.
As for Step 5: Code an Anki Decks Maker, we have no knowledge while I assume you gained relevant knowledge on this field when you created Anki-Chinese-Vocabulary-Generator. So I wonder if you could give us some guidance.

1. Is there a project or Anki documentation page which would best help LinguaLibre's volunteers to code a Anki Decks Maker ?
2. What resources helped you the most in your project, and which we could use ?
3. Any specific pitfall we should be aware of ?
   Any tiny comment may help this project a lot.

PS: I'am also considering creating an empty github repository to host this conversation and not occupy your repository.

It seems like you can only add the sentences manually for each word, can this be done automatically (any sentence will do) ?

Thanks for your offer to help on Reddit!

I try to reproduce the error but I got another one... Maybe that would be a better way to start?

Thanks a lot in advance!

The meaning of 的 in cedict is as follows

的 的 [de5] /of/~'s (possessive particle)/(used after an attribute)/(used to form a nominal expression)/(used at the end of a declarative sentence for emphasis)/
的 的 [di1] /see 的士[di1 shi4]/
的 的 [di2] /really and truly/
的 的 [di4] /aim/clear/

But the Anki-Chinese-Vocabulary generator only give following result in meaning.

I've got these exceptions and could not generate any output.txt.

Thanks a lot for your help!

Maybe optional fields you can check off
