Hello

So i was trying to open the dictionary app but nothing happened. Console tells me this
Code:
Dictionary[12801]  No Info.plist file in application bundle or no NSPrincipalClass in the Info.plist file, exiting

I have no idea how to fix this? I guess doing a reinstall would do it but that seems so drastic, there must be a simpler way.
 
Delete this file:
/Users/username/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Dictionary.plist​
If that doesn't help, delete this file:
/Users/username/Library/Preferences/com.apple.DictionaryServices.plist​
