I want to do it using http://en.wiktionary.org/w/api.php the api. something like that, I will give the input word and get the details from wiktionary. like this page http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/sleep I want to parse the all info from this page.

I have used this http://en.wiktionary.org/w/api.php?action=opensearch&search=sleep&fo... and after parsing the xml files its returns "From slǣp, from Germanic." i want to parse the noun and verb section.

hello friends,

I want to parse the word definition from wikitionary. but I do not understand which parameter will used for it. please help me about this.

The definition of a word isn't stored by the software. The best you can do is grab the wikitext of a page and try to extract the definition from that.
