tkinter Entry to Listbox

I'm trying to make a to do list program on Python 3.8. It will take the inputs from the user by the help of

def input_():
    label["text"] = inputword.get()

inputword=Entry()
inputword.pack(anchor = "nw", padx = 10, pady = 10)

and a button:

add_input= Button(text ="Add to List",
                  command = input_,
                  bg = "#ae0000",
                  fg= "white",
                  font=("Calibri", "15", "bold")
           )
add_input.pack(anchor="nw", padx=10)

This works but i couldn't add my inputs to list.

listbox=Listbox()
listbox.place(x=250,y=250)
listbox.insert(0, add_input or maybe input_)

How should i rearrange my code?

I think it should be like:

def input_():
    label["text"] = inputword.get() #dont know what this is cuz label is undefined
    listbox.insert(END, inputword.get()) #argument -> (index,string)

You can use the insert() method of the Listbox to insert into the Listbox. This will insert each items to the end of the Listbox, when you press the button. If you want each item to be on top rather than bottom of the list, then say 0 instead of END.

Hope you understood whats going on, do let me know if any errors or doubts.

Cheers
