I'm not familiar with that app but it may be that the app itself filters out the article and not the selection.
Marvin can and does detect the language of a book (if it's in the metadata). What I can do is this:
- Do not modify the selection (i.e. allow the selection of the article as well, iOS is gets upset when you try and play around with selections).
- When you launch the dictionary, Marvin will strip out the article** if the language is French.
- Send the sanitised version of the selection to the dictionary.
** I'd hard-code a set of prefixes that Marvin would strip out.
Questions:
1) Does this sound robust?
2) Would you be willing to help and send me a list of prefixes to strip out? My French is rusty.
