So, hello. Python begginer and fairly new here as well. I didn't want to do this actually but I can't seem to find any answer anywhere. So I simply (or so I thought) wanna scrape this site to get a random word. I can't seem to find an efficient way on what tags to use in order to filter the html code. Any suggestions or good resources would be really appreciated! In addition, here's my code:
url = 'https://www.randomlists.com/random-words?dup=false&qty=1'
page = requests.get(url)
soup = BeautifulSoup(page.text, 'html.parser')
review_text = soup.find_all(class_='support')
print(review_text)
>> []
I keep changing the find_all() argument but I can't figure out the right one

First of all, try to find some basic tutorials on youtube to learn how can scrap basic websites and how everything works overall. And after that, I recommend to you start studying this book and practice.
