Downloading a stock dictionary has been stuck with an empty loading circle for weeks. What's wrong here?

When trying to download a stock iOS dictionary it left me with a loading circle for weeks. I can not cancel the download and retry, it's just stuck with an empty loading circle

- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost

Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at

least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

- Reset all settings

Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.

All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.

- Restore from backup. See:

iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
