MacMost Forum / Dictionary/Thesaurus question

Gary, is it possible to highlight a word in a document and open the dictionary with a keyboard command, placing the word in the search field?

Right now, the only way I know to do it is to highlight and copy the word, click to open the dictionary icon in the dock, then paste the word into the search field.

Thanks!

– Michelle

    Absolutely. Just highlight the word and Ctrl+Click (or Right click) and select “Look up in Dictionary”
