Add an English WOTD #1

Closed Squybee closed 6 years ago

It would be nice if an English WOTD was added. Here is a RSS feed: https://www.merriam-webster.com/wotd/feed/rss2

Unfortunately, not all rss feeds are created equal. Will see what I can do.

Also, the system is built around having a foreign word, a translation, an example sentence and a translated example sentence, so I do not really see a way to implement english wotd at the moment.

Resolved by 42374d5 and ed9f0d8. Added english language from merriam-webster, but unfortunately there is no way to parse the data for example sentences in a reliable way.
