Is there any method in fasttext that takes two words as inputs and returns their similarity

I have followed this documentation to get fasttext running, fairly straightforward. Commands such as $ ./fasttext nn result/fil9.bin can be used to find nearest neighbour of a word. However, is there any such simple command in fasttext that takes two words such as "Vehicle" and "Car" as input and returns their (cosine) similarity i.e. a number like 0.777.

At present time, it's not part of the API. You can use gensim, or write your own distance metric calculation.
