I had the previous version of googletrans, reinstalled all dependencies, including googletrans (pip3 install googletrans==4.0.0rc1), and it worked. Thank you very much for the tool, it saved me a lot of time.

Can you create something similar for Japanese? Downloading audio is not an issue but linking it with other data to import everything to Anki is another matter.

I am also planning similar tool for Japanese. In meantime you can use this api.

https://jisho.org/api/v1/search/words?keyword=

If words.txt file contains following japanese characters

学
好
但

Then using following scripts, reading and meaning can be fetched.

import requests,  json

base_url = "https://jisho.org/api/v1/search/words?keyword="

words_file = "words.txt"

save_meaning = "meaning.txt"

m_file = open(save_meaning, "w", encoding="utf-8")

with open(words_file, "r", encoding="utf-8") as f:
    for line in f:
        url = base_url + line
        response = requests.get(url)
        print(line)
        if response.status_code == 200:
            data = response.json()

            reading = data["data"][0]["japanese"][0]["reading"]
            print (reading)

            meaning = data["data"][0]["senses"][0]["english_definitions"]
            print (meaning)

            print("\n")

            # word, reading, meaning
            w_r_m = line.rstrip() + "\t" + str(reading) + "\t" + ", ".join(meaning) + "\n"
            m_file.write(w_r_m)
        #print(response)

m_file.close()
f.close()

After fetching data, it get written to meaning.txt file

学   がく  learning, scholarship, study, erudition, knowledge, education
好   こう  good
但   ただ  ordinary, common, usual

Audio can also be linked to output result.

Awesome, thank you! I could not fetch the audio but generated some data. It is a great starting point. Now it's time to study 🙂.
