-## Code Style
-
-- Keep it simple — no build steps, no frameworks beyond Express
-- Use `const`/`let`, async/await, and modern Node.js (18+)
-- Format readable code; no auto-formatter required
-
-## Pull Request Guidelines
-
-- One change per PR
-- Update the README if your change affects usage or setup
-- Update CHANGELOG.md under `[Unreleased]`
-- Test that the API still returns valid JSON and the page renders
-
-## Adding Words

-To add curated fallback words, edit `words.json`. Each entry needs:
-
-```json
-{
-  "word": "example",
-  "phonetic": "/ɪɡˈzæmpəl/",
-  "definition": "a thing serving as a model",
-  "example": "This is an example sentence.",
-  "partOfSpeech": "noun"
-}
