Said about Artha as an alternative
It's good better for fast searching of a meaning of a word. Almost like the world wide web.
WordWeb Looks and works the same.

I frequently use WordWeb on Windows, so I was looking for another off-line dictionary to use on my Kubuntu laptop. This is exactly what I wanted. I especially like how the quick lookup shortcut will bring up a desktop notification with the definition instead of the main window - pleasantly unobtrusive :)
