Word Wise

Word Wise, available on many popular English-language titles, makes it easier for readers
learning English and kids reading their first chapter books to understand challenging books
more quickly. When Word Wise is on for an enabled title, short and simple definitions
automatically display above difficult words so you can keep reading without the need to look
words up. To learn more or see the various meanings the same word can have in a different
context, tap the word to display a card with definitions, synonyms, and more. Tap Word Wise
in the bottom right corner of the screen and use the slider to adjust the number of hints you
see. To turn on Word Wise, tap the Menu button and select Word Wise.
You may also see multiple-choice hints for words with more than one possible meaning when
we're not quite sure which is the right one. For those words, we show you our best guess
above the word. When you tap the hint, a list of all possible meanings of the word display and
you can help let us know which one is most helpful in the given sentence. To turn off Show
Multiple-Choice Hints, tap the Menu button and select Word Wise, then disable Show
Multiple-Choice Hints.

Vocabulary Builder

Words you look up in the dictionary are automatically added to Vocabulary Builder. To view
your word list and quiz yourself with flashcards, tap the Vocabulary Builder item on the
Home screen, or select it from the menu on the Home screen or while reading a book.
To view your word list, tap Words in the top left of the screen. Tap a specific word to view its
definition and a usage example. To view your words by book, tap the Books link.
Each time you tap the Flashcards option, Vocabulary Builder selects a set of words from the
current list and displays them as Flashcards. To view a word's definition, tap "See Definition"
in the top left corner of the Flashcard. Tap the Learning link on the Vocabulary Builder main
screen to see how many words you are currently learning and how many you have already
mastered.
To turn Vocabulary Builder off, press and hold on the Vocabulary Builder item on the Home
screen and select Turn Off Vocabulary Builder. You can also turn it off or on by tapping Menu
and selecting Settings. On the Settings page, select Reading Options, Language Learning, then
Vocabulary Builder. Note that words you look up are not added to Vocabulary Builder when it
is off.
