Here is a script where I was inquirying into pali a bit and playing around - I have no idea if it gave me an intelligent answer when it explained the senses of "“nissāya” or if it had mixed it up with another word, it can spit out bad answers - if you have domain specific knowledge you can sort of correct it and then the “conversation” context is kept then you can get increasingly better answers
The following is an example word with sentence in pali, as well as example options, structured as a python dictionary
{“pali”:
{ “word”: “assutavā”,
“sample_sentence”: “Idha, bhikkhave, assutavā puthujjano ariyānaṁ adassāvī ariyadhammassa akovido ariyadhamme avinīto"},
“english”: {
“example”: “Take an ______ ordinary person who has not seen the noble ones”,
“options”: {1: “awesome”, 2: “funny”, 3: “skilled”, 4: “fabulous”, 5: “unlearned”, 6: “virtuous”},
“answer”: “unlearned”,},
Provide the next word and a sample sentence as a python dictionary
{“pali”:
{ “word”: “bhojanaṁ”,
“sample_sentence”: “Idha, bhikkhave, bhojanaṁ paccayo hoti”},

what is the meaning of the pali word “nissāya” in English?
The English translation of the word “nissāya” is “by”.
please give me more sense of the word
The word “nissāya” is used to express a sense of dependence or reliance on something. It is often used to indicate that a particular action is done “by means of” or “through” something else. For example, the sentence “Idha, bhikkhave, nissāya paññāya nissaraṇiyā dhammo adhiṭṭhahati” means “Here, bhikkhus, the Dhamma is held by wisdom”. This indicates that wisdom is the means through which the Dhamma is held.
ok thanks, could you generate the next one

{ “word”: “upanissayaṁ”,

“options”: {1: “attains”, 2: “follows”, 3: “holds”, 4: “sought”, 5: “examines”, 6: “relies”},
