Keyword Dictionary

Question

I designed a website to search for a database of keyword indexed videos. There are several keywords that are repeated, like “child” and “children” or “children”.

I would like users searching for a keyword to find videos with similar keywords and keywords (for example, "kid"> "kinder").

I was thinking about using an external dictionary, there is a Google dictionary, but it does not provide an API.

Do you have an idea on how I can do this?

thanks
