Since the dictionary words are stored in a JSON file, we need to parse the data before saving it to a local database.

data class DictionaryEntry(val term: String, val explanation: String)
The class has two properties: the searchable term and the term definition. It'd be also nice to have a readable string representation of this class, so we let the Kotlin compiler generate a toString method for us with its data class.
