Trigger

Action

Get Word Definition V2

Tool to retrieve definitions, phonetics, origin, and meanings of a given word using freedictionaryapi v2. use when you need comprehensive lexical data for a specific word.

Why this helps

Edited messages can leave earlier explanations attached to the wrong word.

  • Keep answers current
  • Avoid stale explanations
  • Handle corrections automatically

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Discord and Dictionary API in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation named Recheck an edited word.
  • 3Tell Notis to compare the edited text, identify the current target word and return a fresh lookup only when the word changed.
  • 4Pick Message Edited and choose a report channel.
  • 5Test it by editing a message to a different word.

Questions about this workflow

Will it rerun for every edit?

Instruct Notis to run only when the target word or request changes.

Can it explain the correction?

Yes. Ask Notis to include the previous and current word when both are available.
