Description
Terminology is a browser for the English language – part dictionary, part thesaurus and part research tool. Terminology makes it easy to explore words and phrases, diving down to more and less specific terms - accessing the web and other apps for more detail and sharing.
More than a dictionary, Terminology can be extended with custom actions to search the Internet and other reference apps – making it a great place to start all your searches.
Use the share extension to select text anywhere, in any app, and look it up in Terminology.

Version 4.7
Slight redesign of actions, now providing a menu of additional actions next to the scrolling button row to allow easier access. This menu replaces the actions previously displayed at the bottom of a term's definitions.
Ratings and Reviews
More keyboard support would be nice
Edit: thank you for implementing keyboard shortcuts! It’s the most useful dictionary app on my ipad now. I’m glad I decided to take a look at Terminology again.
By the way, the app store page says there’s an in-app purchase but I don’t see how to get to it through the app. There’s also a typo in your version history: “not free” I think you meant “now free”?
===========
Would be great if the most common actions could be done entirely with a physical keyboard. I want to be able to switch to this app, immediately start typing a word, maybe use the arrow keys to select the correct entry to open, then press enter to see the dictionary entry. This is not possible at the moment. It requires taps on the screen.
The BEST!
The only app i found to have in app search definition. The widget is also awesome. I had to buy not because i need the pro features, just appreciated the app so much. Hope to see more apps like this in the AppStore.
