# Old Icelandic Zoega

Old Icelandic dictionary for Rust. From "A Concise Dictionary of Old Icelandic" by Geir Zoëga.

The dictionary consists of 29 000+ Old Icelandic words with English translations. Also available for [Node.js](https://github.com/stscoundrel/old-icelandic-zoega)

### Install

`cargo add old_icelandic_zoega`

Or add this to your `Cargo.toml`:

```toml

[dependencies]

old_icelandic_zoega = "1.1.0"

```

### Usage

Dictionary comes in two variants: one with html markup, and one without.

```rust

// Ships two variants, plus DictionaryEntry.

use old_icelandic_zoega::{get_dictionary, get_no_markup_dictionary, DictionaryEntry};

// Standard dictionary. Contains "strong" and "i" tags to match the printed book.

let dictionary = get_dictionary();

// No-markup version. Contains no tags or additional markup.

let no_markup_dictionary = get_no_markup_dictionary();

// Both methods return Result, which should always be safe to unwrap.

// Up to you if you wish to just unwrap, or use other error handling method.

let dictionary_content: Vec = dictionary.unwrap();

let no_markup_dictionary_content: Vec = no_markup_dictionary.unwrap();

println!("A word from dictionary: {}. First definition for it is: {}", &dictionary_content[0].word, &dictionary_content[0].definitions[0])

```
