I am using https://dictionaryapi.dev/ API.
Example https://api.dictionaryapi.dev/api/v2/entries/en/help
But when i go to extract the definition from the response I get this error
Here is my code:
the response is not a list of pairs.
post do it result to here as text, not photo
i have attempted to get all definitons for the word hello and it returns length of 7 lists
(blocks are draggable)

but for every word this api will return multiple definitons, what will you do then? better show the result inlist view like this
Then you have to use one more if then condtion to select limited words items from the obtained result
(just my suggestion, here i am selecting the definitions having lenght less than 30 charaters)
