quick question for the community:

As a non English native I wonder if there is a keyboard on Android with a build-in dictionary (definitions of words) to check if the word I’m using is the good one without having to stop writing and checking on my browser

I would prefer this rather than a translator as it’s seams to be a better way to improve my learning than just translating words from my native language

I’m currently using OpenBoard with some downloaded language dictionaries. I think it is a good tool, not really able to see definitions though
