Great reference app

I stumbled on this while searching for a better dictionary app. Very well crafted. I like the integration with "look up", specific/general and wiki links.
I would like to see the ability to edit your last searched word. If the word isn't found, perhaps it could default to the builtin look up iOS feature?
It would also be great if the app integrated better with Bluetooth keyboards / smart keyboards. I would like to search and select my term by using the keyboard only.
Other Nice to haves
Search bar: ability to press enter to select the top result
Definitions: ability to swipe right from the left edge to navigate the results backwards and likewise for forward direction
Thanks

Great app, just or better!

The implementation of iOS 9 features are very we'll done, making this app even more useful!

A Quality Thesaurus with Natural Language

The Terminology App is a fantastic tool for those people who miss the convenient dictionary functionality built into OSX. It draws from a number of sources including but not limited to Wordnik, Wikipedia, as well as it’s own database. It is quite responsive and always includes useful natural usage examples.

Not what I expected

I was hoping for a nice minimalist, highly powerful dictionary, but all I got was an over simplified word search engine. I guess if you're someone who likes to store certain words to view later, this app makes sense. But as a dictionary, it doesn't offer great definitions or thesaurus options.
