There exists a standard protocol for accessing remote dictionary services. While it's quite old in design, it was purposefully designed for clients/applications such as define.

A generic DICT protocol "source"/provider could potentially be added to define with a configurable list of servers, depending on how complex the access and data parsing (into structures) would be.

More info here (for later reference):

Ah ha! It seems that there's actually a supplemental/experimental package for the DICT protocol for Go already!
