I'm running MATE on Ubuntu 18.04 and I do not have the Dictionary listed in my Applications > Accessories menu. I do however have Artha, which is useful but not what I want.

When entering mate-dictionary into the command line the following appears:

Gtk-Message: 07:21:55.447: Failed to load module "topmenu-gtk-module"

Then the dictionary opens and functions as expected.

I would like to have the dictionary available from the GUI rather than having to access the terminal each time.

Any help would be appreciated. Hal.

The MATE Dictionary is located in Office category. Please check it out:

MATE Dictionary

The warning message may be removed by 

sudo rm /etc/X11/Xsession.d/99mate-environment

(this file is a leftover from 16.04 LTS and should be removed on 18.04 LTS - see bug)
