isaacpz Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 (edited) Word Search is an Alfred 2/3 workflow which exposes powerful word searching utilities. Ultimately, the workflow can be leveraged to widen your vocabulary and make you a better writer. Quick Reference syn [word] - Broadly searches for words related to a word/phrase. dsyn [word] - Searches for a word’s exact synonyms. ant [word] - Searches for a word’s antonyms. rhyme [word] - Searches a word’s rhymes. describing [word] - Searches for words that describe another word Usage Simply type in a command. Selecting a result will copy that word to your clipboard and automatically paste it in the front most app. Installation Simply download the latest .alfredworkflow file and double click it to import it to Alfred. Word Search will update on its own. Demonstration Searching for words that describe “dog” This forum doesn't like many images. If you want to see more screenshots, checkout the github page.

Damoeire Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Awesome @isaacpz ! Where does it get its words from? Link to comment
isaacpz Posted December 14, 2017 Author Share Posted December 14, 2017 @Damoeire it uses Datamuse for all the dictionary stuff. It's an awesome resource. Damoeire 1 Link to comment
juliosecco Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 I'm not a native english speaker, working a lot with list of keywords that describe audio files... This tool can be A LOT useful for me! Thank you! Link to comment
piggah Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 This is really cool and something I never considered for a workflow idea. This is info I'd like to have frequently but usually too lazy or too slow to get to it. Very nice Link to comment
Southgirl Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Just watched a video where someone talked about this workflow. So glad I found it! Works perfectly on v4. Link to comment
Mracu Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 Hi there! I am very grateful for this workflow. It is awesome! Thank you! However, I would like to suggest an idea, since I am not capable enough to do it on my own. Since, I am not a native speaker I make mistakes in prepositions, which follow a word. Maybe, you can expand the functionality of this plugin and add a search for prepositions? It would be really cool to have a context description in case of multiple options. It would be highly appreciable by me. Once again, thank you! Link to comment

Dekime Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 same issue as @itsJaky Worked well before but since Alfred 4.6.4 I'm getting these errors. Link to comment
vitor Posted May 1 Share Posted May 1 @ItsJaky @Dekime See the following post for an explanation, how to fix, and alternative Workflows. Link to comment
jun6lee Posted May 1 Share Posted May 1 This one in particular I've got working on a fork. https://github.com/jun6lee/Alfred-WordSearch I have an alternate fix too. This whole MacOS update has forced me to learn a bit of Python3. Undertaker01, Dekime and vitor 3 Link to comment
vitor Posted May 1 Share Posted May 1 Welcome to the forums @jun6lee. I have added your fork as the first alternative on the table. Link to comment

This whole MacOS update has forced me to learn a bit of Python3. Step into the right direction! It loads correctly but I'm getting the certificate error. Do you happen to know how to fix this?

jun6lee Posted May 1 Share Posted May 1 Have just pushed my pure Python3 fix, which should fix this. Link to comment
jun6lee Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 (edited) Can't seem to replicate. Did you download the updated .workflow file? Edited May 3 by jun6lee img Link to comment
Dekime Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 On 5/3/2022 at 2:07 AM, jun6lee said: Can't seem to replicate. Did you download the updated .workflow file? I did. You can see in the console the run version is 2.0.1 Link to comment
jun6lee Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 I could change the url to http (rather than https) but would rather not, since it works for me on two computers (1 on Intel, 1 on M1). You could do this yourself in the similar.py (open in Finder and you'll see it there) and see if that works for you. Alternatively, give this a shot. May fix it for you if it's a local issue. https://www.dev2qa.com/how-to-fix-python-error-certificate-verify-failed-unable-to-get-local-issuer-certificate-in-mac-os/ Link to comment
