Thanks for the responses. We may be talking about different things. If I am in a Spanish book it will not look up an English word in the English dictionary. If I am in an English book it will not look up a German word. I can use the drop down menu in the dictionary look up and use the translate option but that is a bit more tedious than simply designating the dictionary to use for the word and getting a definition rather than the translation. I do have various dictionaries for english, spanish, german, french and italian but I'll check again to make sure that I am not doing something wrong.
