Description

In the course of rolling out the definition endpoint to the production content service, we discovered to our surprise that there are a large number of non-English words on English wiktionary, with English definitions provided.

See, for example: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%D0%B8%D0%B7%D0%B1%D0%B5%D1%80%D0%B0

Since content for all languages is now being pregenerated in RESTBase and sent on demand, why not update the parsing on the app side to display the definitions for all languages?
