Choose the meaning that fits your sentence
Share the word and the sentence around it. Notis can retrieve its meanings and explain which one matches the context you provide.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Get Word Definition
Retrieves dictionary information for a word, with limited coverage beyond English.
Why this helps
A word with several definitions can make writing or reading feel needlessly uncertain.
- Review multiple meanings in one place.
- Use your own sentence as context for the explanation.
- Reduce time spent opening several dictionary entries.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ai ml api and Dictionary api once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation named Understand a Word in Context.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to look up the supplied word and explain which returned meaning best fits the supplied sentence.
- 4Choose notis_webhook as the trigger and choose a report destination.
- 5Test with a real sentence containing an ambiguous word.
Questions about this workflow
Does the automation know the sentence context automatically?
No. Include the sentence with the word in the webhook request so Notis can use it in its explanation.
Will it always identify one certain meaning?
It can compare the returned meanings with the sentence you provide. If the context is unclear, it should say so.
