English dictionary in readable format (text or xml)

I am hoping to find a downloadable (free or paid) English dictionary preferably from Oxford, Cambridge, Webster in text or XML format to do some NLP.

I hope that each entry has

such as in the following page http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/side.

The actual text of the definition is not important. What I need most is the part of speech, pronunciation, morphology, order of definition entries.

Also wondering: what does the Stanford NLP toolkit use as lexical resources when it does POS tagging?

Thank you.

Here and here are the similar questions. In summary:

  1. Part-of speech dictionary - unfortunately, with quite narrow tag set.
  2. Pronouncing Dictionary
  3. Multiple senses - WordNet

Morphological dictionary can be found in FreeLing distribution - see data/en/dicc.src. Btw, there are also senses and phonetic dictionaries.
