Search for a word or phrase in Dictionary

  • In the Dictionary app on your Mac, type a word or phrase in the search field in the upper-right corner of the Dictionary window.

    Note: If you add another Dictionary source, wait for it to download completely before searching for a word or phrase. For information about adding sources, see 'Customize Dictionary sources' below.

    While reading the definition, you'll see links (blue text) to related words. In addition, you can hold the pointer over any word or phrase and click to look up its definition.

    When you look up a word in a definition, a SnapBack button appears in the search field. Click it to return to your starting definition. You can also swipe left or right on your trackpad or click the previous or next button in the toolbar of the Dictionary window to move between definitions you viewed.
