Install a dictionary
Instead of starting with a built-in dictionary, Word 2013 links you to the Office Store so you can pick a free dictionary or buy one from a collection, including dictionaries in many languages.
To choose and install the dictionary you want, right-click any word and click Define.
Or click Review > Define.
Sign in if you're prompted to, and look over the choices in the Dictionaries list, and then click Download to install the dictionary you want.
After it downloads, the dictionary will open automatically in Word. From then on it will open whenever you click Define.
Tip: If you're looking for a different way to say something, right-click any word in your document and click Synonyms. A short list of synonyms will automatically open. Or click Review > Thesaurus to open the built-in thesaurus. See Look up words in the thesaurus for more info about the thesaurus features.
