Hello,

On my mac there is a feature where if I was reading something and didn't know a word then I would right click on it and there will be a dictionary option. Just wondering if the Ipad has the same feature somehow for it's web browser or iBooks or the NYC or magazine apps?

Thanks,
 
The only App provided by Apple that I know to have a built-in dictionary is iBooks. Other App creators will vary.

And try this on your Mac; instead of right-clicking and going to Look up in Dictionary, try pressing CTRL+CMD+D and hovering over a word. ;)
 
Thanks for the shortcut. Hope I can remember it lol
