Creating word games

Getting Started Newbie Questions
#1

HI, 

I’m trying to create a word game similar to Ruzzle or Scramble with Friends.

How would you go about checking to see if the user input is indeed a word or not?

Is there a dictionary tool for corona I can use?

#2

I created a SQLite database of valid words. Then after the user submits, query the database to see if anything is returned. If nothing is returned, then the word is not valid.

#3

We don’t have a dictionary library. But you can certainly find plenty of word lists on the internet and then do a table look up on it, or as the post above suggests use an SQL query.

Thanks !  :smiley:
