Arabic words dictionary doesn't work

[jainsubh]

I tried to find definition of Arabic word "موافقة"

https://api.dictionaryapi.dev/api/v2/entries/ar/موافقة

I got below error

// https://api.dictionaryapi.dev/api/v2/entries/ar/%D9%85%D9%88%D8%A7%D9%81%D9%82%D8%A9

{
  "title": "No Definitions Found",
  "message": "Sorry pal, we couldn't find definitions for the word you were looking for.",
  "resolution": "You can try the search again at later time or head to the web instead."
}

Thanks!

Yeah, the api currently only works with english words. German words also don't work.

you can deploy the older version of the API by yourself. this change was announced last year:

[IMPORTANT] Will remove non English languages

How should I deploy the older version of the API? It seems this repo has only the API layer, and the dictionary service is somewhere out of here.
