I want to be able to use an English synonym found in the given definition
instead of the canonical word. For instance, for klama, either
"come" OR "go". The frustration over feeling punished for giving the
correct idea but the wrong word has postponed my Logflash usage until I
bother to go through the list and remove the words I already know, such as
klama.
