Bs4 to List/Dictionary Question - mudrig - 08-02-2020

This is my current code:

Code:
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import requests

# Search Parameter
q=''

# Url to Search for questions
QUERY_URL = "url will be here" + q
req = requests.get(QUERY_URL)
soup = BeautifulSoup(req.text, "html.parser")

# Find all link tags question-hyperlink classes with a limit of 15
questions = soup.find_all("a", class_="question-hyperlink" , limit=15)

# Remove html tags and only print the text
for a in questions:
print(a.text)

Everything prints out correctly in the output as I need but I want to be able to pull one at a time from it instead of all 15 at once. So how can I change

Code:
print(a.text)

to output a dictionary or list instead .. thanks

some_list = []

And inside for loop,

some_list.append(a.text)

Or

Declare a dict,
some_dict = {}

And inside for loop,
some_dict[some_key value] = a.text

Exactly what I was looking for thanks

It is not easier to buy a dictionary with the language you need, that is, it already depends on the purpose of each one. For example, I wanted to learn as many [link redacted] as possible, and I bought a dictionary from Amazon with the specifics of the terms. You can also find dictionaries with grammar or phrases. But what is the purpose of this whole thing? I can't understand, so could you please explain to me, because I find the scheme quite interesting. It wouldn't hurt to delve deeper into other areas, but it's personal development.
