So how is this different from dict ?

dict is the client for DICT, or the Dictionary Server Protocol on Unix-like platforms. It is used to query natural language dictionaries without firing up a bloaty browser, which tremendously slows down your workflow.

Vocab aims to do the same as dict, only with some differences:

• Less verbose result (since Vocab only uses one source).
• Can save words to local client dictionary pickle file.
• Can add notes to a saved word.
• Includes a interactive word-quiz feature.
• With colors 🎨!

All in all, Vocab is a great tool for fast word queries with easy-to-read definitions, and a good support for ESL users.
