Another example that I just noticed is in Hamlet, where he says "in thy orisons be all my sins remember'd". The UK dictionary has "orison" but not "orisons", so initially says "no definition found", while the US dictionary has both, so gets it. I don't understand the logic across the two dictionaries used to include/exclude derviations from root words.
My top tip is: if it says "no definition found" for a plural/past tense verb/etc. tap the dictionary icon and the word comed up by default. Delete the "-s" or "-ed" etc., and the root word may turn up. In this example, tapping the dictionary item then delete makes "orison" appear in the dictionary search window.
