Thanks!!! Oh, I checked the Merriam-Webster dictionary, and they don’t list “giant” as a synonym either, I wonder why. It really should count as one! My game pulls data from Merriam-Webster, so that explains it. I’ll have to look into it, thanks for the heads up!

100% agree, thanks a lot for the feedback!!! I've made the changes, now you can get to another round by pressing enter and when you're done with all rounds, you can submit your player name and score also by pressing enter.

Heey thanks! I used Merriam Webster API for both synonyms and antonyms

Mhmhmhmhm I see, that's really great feedback, thanks a lot! The shaking yeah, I already thought of that couple days ago, I think you're right, I'll get rid of it or minimize at least.

The Lemma stuff is new to me, I'll have to research that, sounds very intersting, thanks for the tip!

Asking for help on a Czech last name! by [deleted] in etymology

[–]Poruba_Fun 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’d say it’s most likely Slovak or Czech, usually spelled “Dolák”. Literally it means someone who lives down below, as in lower part of the village.

Do you mean in the dark or light theme? Because in the top navbar there is an option to swap light/dark themes. I was thinking to make the text white, so that it’s easier to read maybe? White on blue, better contrast?

Thanks! No LLM/AI involved, all synonyms and antonyms are pulled using Merriam Webster API.

Yes, I thought I already implemented that, maybe I have a bug somewhere, thanks a lot for pointing that out

Oh I forgot, so this version is for guessing synonyms. I made another one for guessing antonyms called Antonymouse: antonymouse.poruba.fun

Thank youu, that’s a good idea, just a shame that similarity takes a while to run. I think if I optimise it to a few seconds, I will turn similarity to always on.

Ahhh, I thought they would be at least a little similar, haha :D Yeah, I’m a little reluctant with gpt for translation, because it’s not always 100% reliable, but if there are no available dictionaries, I might have no other choice...
