AI DEFINITIONS
When SUM-20 does not contain an entry, you can request an AI-generated definition. The feature is optional and can be disabled in Settings. Generated entries are clearly marked as unofficial and may contain inaccuracies.

ABOUT THE DICTIONARY
The app uses the published volumes of the academic 20-volume Explanatory Dictionary of the Ukrainian Language, SUM-20. Sixteen of the planned twenty volumes are currently available; future volumes will be added after publication.

UA Dictionary is an independent app. AI-generated definitions are separate from SUM-20 and are always presented separately from its academic entries.
