Most of the American English dictionaries don't work.

Where is the search? I want to look up a word I was considering using in a post but wanted to check its definition to ensure its correct meaning, but there is no search box, just a bunch of references, none of which I can access! Or am I completely ignorant as to how this app works?

this is really nice, but for some reason after I change dictionaries the list stays the same, it would be great if you could choose one dictionary and a button for it would popup every time you double click the word

I really, really would love to see the design of Thesaurus: Synonyms 4 Right Click (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/thesaurus-synonym-4-right/lpkpcliecpgjbkffooidajhakoidhidh?hl=en) integrated with this database. I hate that this has an extra step of the popout or additional tab whereas the other one has a terrible database, but great user interface.
