Describe the solution you'd like Definitions of the words can be pulled from a third party dictionary like merriam Webster or oxford. It would be great for providing user the definition of the word in python powered word game.

The very same API provider "Wordnik" used here does provide a slightly different URL to make calls for a word's definition. I'll be including this feature and creating a pull request very soon.

Hey, are the definitions going to be from "Wordnik" using the API, or they can be from other sites as well?

The definitions for the words can be pulled from any site, but I don't know the procedure to keep the API token secret. This repo has been inactive for quite some time, and I don't think any improvements put forth hereon on this will go into production anytime soon. Best to invest time elsewhere.
