Abstract

Techniques for customizing a display of content related to dictionary entries are described herein. In one example, a user selects a word from a rendered electronic book. In response, the device outputs a dictionary user interface that includes display elements associated with a particular user. Preferences of a user may be utilized to determine what content (e.g., what display elements) to display within the dictionary UI as well as how the content is to be displayed. The preferences may be user-specified and/or learned from user behavior. For instance, a machine learning mechanism may be used to determine what content is the most interesting to a user.
