Clicking on a short definition will open a longer definition from Word Wise and the New Oxford American Dictionary or Oxford Dictionary of English (you can switch between the two), along with a translation and Wikipedia page, if available.

Pressing and holding a word or phrase, in addition to what’s mentioned above, will open up the option to share a quote directly to Goodreads.
