All versions of Word come with a lexicon for spell checking purposes. Yours
may not be installed. If what you want is an actual dictionary in which you
can look up meanings and pronunciations, then this will be a separate
application. There is an Encarta dictionary that you can purchase (though I
doubt that you can download it), and there are of course others, up to and
including the OED.
