from difflib import get_close_matches 
  
# Loading data from json file 
data = json.load(open("dictionary.json")) 
  
def translate(w): 
    # convert it to lower case 
    w = w.lower() 
  
    if w in data:
        print("\n",w,":",data[w])
        
  
# Driver code 
word = input("Enter the sentence: ")
word = word.split()
for i in word:
    output = translate(i) 
  

JSON file named as dictionary.json
