Listening to music and songs was a fun helpful way for me to get practice and immersion when I was studying a foreign language. This is a short program I made when I was learning Korean. Goal was to search for songs in a Spotify playlist for a specific vocab that I was learning at the time. This would allow for more easy real world examples and familiarity in my study material.
Example of searching a playlist of Blackpink songs for the vocab "사랑"
- Search through all songs in a Spotify playlist for the desired vocabulary or phrase
- Retrieve all lines that contains the word or phrase
- The lines containing the word or phraseb will also be translated through Google Translate
- Need Spotify API Key
- Need Genius API Key
- Spotify Playlist
Configure config.py with the desired data
- Spotify API Key
- Genius API Key
- Enter the Spotify playlist's uri that you want to search
- Redirect URI is set to local host by default
- Install dependencies:
pip install -r requirments.txt - Args: -v --vocab: vocab to search for
- Run: py main.py -v vocab
- Add feature to take into account different forms for the same word. This is important for languages like Korean.
