It only works for dictionary [headwords](documentation/glossary?term=headword), so you may need to use the [Lemmatron](documentation/glossary?term=lemma) first if your input is likely to be an [inflected](documentation/glossary?term=inflection) form (e.g., 'swimming'). This would return the linked [headword](documentation/glossary?term=headword) (e.g., 'swim') which you can then use in the Entries endpoint. Unless specified using a region filter, the default lookup will be the Oxford Dictionary of English (GB). \n
