it depends on what i'm doing, usually i manage to avoid getting too distracted while reading. i was reading an english book before the one i'm reading now which is in french, and i looked up words almost on every page, but then i went back to my book (at worst i opened the full definition screen, or looked up one additional word).

brilliant. now i'm reading a french book, it's a bit old, there are some words i'm not familiar with or i'd just like to make sure, and i keep having the reflex to tap the word to check the dictionary.

*sigh* need french dictionary too !
