retrofit.RetrofitError: 404 Not Found

I am working on an android application that utilizes Retrofit to make api calls. When I call the following code:

String searchText = query;
RestAdapter restAdapter = new RestAdapter.Builder()
        .setEndpoint("https://mashape-community-urban-dictionary.p.mashape.com")
        .build();
WordsApiService wordsApi = restAdapter.create(WordsApiService.class);
wordsApi.getWordDefinition(query, new Callback<WordsResponse>() {
    @Override
    public void success(WordsResponse wordsResponse, Response response) {
        System.out.println(response.toString());
    }

    @Override
    public void failure(RetrofitError error) {
        System.out.println(error.getResponse().getStatus());
    }
});

With the following service:

public interface WordsApiService {

    @Headers({
            "X-Mashape-Key : *insert real api key*",
            "Accept: text/plain"
    })
    @GET("/define/")
    void getWordDefinition(@Query("word") String word, Callback<WordsResponse> callback);

}

I am getting a 404 error (retrofit.RetrofitError: 404 Not Found).
When I go into mashape, I see that the service call is going through and hitting the api.

Am I missing something obvious in terms of the configuration of the application?

Remove the forward slash from the "define" endpoint path.
Also, the query param is "term" and not "word"

public interface WordsApiService {
    @Headers({
        "X-Mashape-Key : *insert real api key*",
        "Accept: text/plain"
    })
    @GET("/define")
    void getWordDefinition(@Query("term") String term, Callback<WordsResponse> callback);
}
