Action
Get Word Definition V2
Tool to retrieve definitions, phonetics, origin, and meanings of a given word using freedictionaryapi v2. use when you need comprehensive lexical data for a specific word.

- Make terminology clarification available when a backend detects a word.
- Return a concise meaning without sending the user to another tool.

- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis in plain language to define a word received from a custom request.
- 3Write one prompt instruction asking for the supplied term's definition and a short explanation using available Linear context.
- 4Select an incoming Notis webhook as the trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
