## 🔍 Usage

### Basic Usage

```python
from albanianlanguage import get_all_words

# Get all Albanian words
all_words = get_all_words()
print(f"Total words: {len(all_words)}")

# Get words starting with a specific prefix
sh_words = get_all_words(starts_with="sh")
print(f"Words starting with 'sh': {len(sh_words)}")
```

words_with_je = get_all_words(includes="je")
print(f"Words containing 'je': {len(words_with_je)}")
```

### Getting Word Details

```python
# Get words with their types and definitions
detailed_words = get_all_words(return_type=True, return_definition=True)

# Print some examples
for word in detailed_words[:5]:
    print(f"Word: {word['word']}")
    print(f"Type: {word.get('type', 'N/A')}")
    print(f"Definition: {word.get('definition', 'N/A')}")
    print("---")
```
