    list of 100,000 English words- is there a way to access Micrsoft's dictionary ex below.

    I have a list of 100,000 english words and in the adjacent cell i need the definition of that word to come up for all words.

    Is there a built-in function to do this? Ex.) =Define(A1) ?

    Can someone help me create something that accesses Microsofts Dictionary and the processing time is relatively short to the solution in the link below:

    The Script below uses the Google Dictionary JSON method and freezes my computer if I drag the formula down father than 100 lines.
