Have you tried:
Lookup in BlackBerry World! You can find it at http://appworld.blackberry.com/webst...ntent/47405888

It takes a bit of setting up (you have to download whatever dictionary you want manually), but it works really well for me.

BlackBerry 10 signed.

A few weeks ago I recommended VocaBuilder as the best (online or offline) dictionary solution for BB10:

Some salient features:

Free before donations.
Native Cascades UI.
Offline dictionary (powered by WordNet) with synonyms and examples. (Online dictionary has more features, pulls from several sources.)
Nine different Word of the Day providers built-in. Pick and choose.
Four preloaded word lists with flashcards. Allows for custom lists as well.

Been using it for a couple days now, and I've found it seamless. I had previously installed the Android Merriam-Webster, which also provides an excellent offline dictionary, but VocaBuilder's interface is much zippier, as one would expect. Aside from the addition of active frame support (featuring a random word of the day?), I can't imagine it being more feature-rich than it is. Highly recommended!
And the developer just added a built-in translator tool in the last 24 hours, so the app just keeps getting better and better.

The info suggests placing the dictionary-file on the sdcard in a "folder" but is not very specific. Where would the dictionary file go on the sdcard? Thanks in advance.
