Cite Them Right referencing style:

When quoting a definition from a dictionary, use the reference guidelines for Reference Books and Online reference books.

The requirements of in text citation are: the author of the entry, if available, or the title of the entry and the Year. For Example: “Spielbergian” (2018)
