They all do. Simultaneously.
I found a really big spanish wikipedia extract that works fine, for example.

You hit whatever button you assigned the dictionary to and the dictionary app pops up in half-screen mode. Then you navigate onscreen word-by-word and the dictionary pane lists the closest definition it can match up to it. Fairly simple.

You can also call up the dictionary's keyboard to type in a word.
You can also change dictionaries on the fly so if you have an eng-eng dict and an eng-ital dict you can instantly switch from one to the other and get both definitions to the same word.

Most of my reading is SF so I don't get much use out of the contemporary dicts but the websters (which is a modified version, btw) comes in handy with the 19th century brit stuff.
