I love the Dictionary tool in macOS, because it's a cool throwback to NEXTSTEP -- specifically the built-in dictionary, "Digital Webster":

Been using macOS for over 10 years, yet I was completely unaware it had an inbuilt dictionary until now. Thanks.
Then you'll be happy to hear about spotlight: hit command+space for instant search, including file contents and the dictionary.
(I'm assuming you have missed this as well because the dictionary is usually the first and sometimes the only result)
Alfred users can also configure it to look up words in Dictionary.app.
I use "define <word>" which IIRC is the default trigger.
