Empty result after Alamofire request

Question

Good evening. I'm trying to create a simple translator for IOS. I'd like to use YandexTranslator API which requires the following request:

https://translate.yandex.net/api/v1.5/tr.json/translate ? 
key=<API key>
 & text=<text to translate>
 & lang=<translation direction>
 & [format=<text format>]
 & [options=<translation options>]
 & [callback=<name of the callback function>]

I'm using Alamofire and my code and my request look like the following:

 @IBAction func translateButtonPressed(_ sender: Any) {
        var newWord = wordField.text

    Alamofire.request("https://translate.yandex.net/api/v1.5/tr.json/translate?lang=en-ru&text=\(newWord))&key=*hereGoesMyKey*", method: .post).responseJSON { response in
        if let translatedWord = response.result.value{
            print(translatedWord)
        }

And my problem is that nothing happens, my JSON data is empty. Could you give me some clue how to fix my problem?

The problem was in my request. The correct request is
