Java compatible English Dictionary API?
<p>I am trying to mimic a simple news reader, a desktop application developed on swings. As a part of this I am looking at including a dictionary lookup for a word from within the tool. I am looking at trying to display the meaning for word as a tool tip that appears upon a double click on JTextpane's content(one single word). </p>

<p>So is there an exposed API for dictionary look-up? Also considering the fact that I am using java swings, the speed with which the API performs dictionary look up is also a key concern in my case..</p>
