For a dictionary/thesaurus I am currently using dictd:

https://github.com/cheusov/dictd

The actual word data comes from several of the sources that
are listed here:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DICT

I am very satisfied with these resources but I am also curious
if there are any other dictionaries available for GNU/Linux,
and I am only interested in local, not online, resources.

I am aware of StarDict but have never used it.

https://stardict-4.sourceforge.net/index_en.php

Can anyone offer recommendations?
