Description marcoagpinto 2016-01-20 11:41:27 UTC 
It would be great if AOO could have a definition dictionary for words when we right-click on them (below the synonyms).

Even Microsoft Office has that.

And to make it powerful, it could point to Wiktionary for the words definitions.

I do not use this kind of feature.
For me, it will be proposed as an extension.

This requires having an internet connection.

Yes this one could be a good feature.
Developers must explain what base for this is needed inside AOO.
The configuration for this feature maybe provided as extensions like the dictionaries. And/Or dictionaries would also provide the configuration for this feature because it make only sense for the right language.
