Office 365 "Your administrator has disabled dictionaries"

$

I am experiencing an odd issue with Office 365, specifically with Word. There is an option under the Review tab called Define, and if you highlight a word in your document and click Define, a window slides out with a definition of the word (you can also right click the word and choose Define from the drop down list).  Up until yesterday, this apparently worked fine.  However now, clicking on the Define button gives you the message "Your administrator has disabled dictionaries."

This is a AD domain environment, and I am on the group policy team.  All users are experiencing this.  Oddly enough, the Thesaurus button still works fine.  I found a forum that suggests that "To use a dictionary, you must be signed in using your Microsoft account."  But there are no restrictions on signing into an MS account, and doing so does not restore the dictionary. 

I am kind of at a loss.  Does anyone know another place I can look where this might be getting set?

Thanks.
