I believe you are referring to gnome-dictionary, which you can install with:

sudo apt-get install gnome-dictionary

Golden Dictionary is heavier (larger) but seems to work well behind a firewall, which seemed to block gnome-dictionary. Installation

sudo apt-get install goldendict

And in Edit-Dictionaries you may add a variety of sources to consult
