All I've learned about dictionary.el came from Mickey Peterson's blog
(please note that the certificate for his website expired two days ago).
We could invite him to write the section for the manual! But I'd also be
happy to help out.

BTW, there also is an extension I've found rather helpful on macOS, viz.

https://github.com/xuchunyang/osx-dictionary.el

which enables the built-in dictionaries and thesauri in macOS (from
Oxford, Webster, Larousse, Duden, etc.).

Best regards,
Jürgen.
