This is a Python implementation of Meanings API from Easy APIs Project (http://gcdc2013-easyapisproject.appspot.com/) to get input from user and give meanings.

MeaningsAPI.py

import urllib2
print "Enter a word:",
q = raw_input() #get word from user
response = urllib2.urlopen('http://gcdc2013-easyapisproject.appspot.com/meanings?q='+q)
html = response.read()
html = html[1:] #remove first {
html = html[:-1] #remove last }
html = html.split('}{') #split and put each resutls to array
for meanings in html:
    print meanings
