Late at night in bed, she reads the same sentence three times and still doesn't get it.
Donna, 28, works in an office

How it works

Select the sentence with your finger, then tap “I don't understand” in the menu.

On the phone a short sheet opens; on the web a card appears under the paragraph. Two or three plain sentences, based on the book's summary, and quick.

Still unclear? Tap Keep asking and the same exchange moves into Ask the book.

Good to know

It doesn't rewrite the paragraph. Your sentence stays where it was.
It explains only the line you selected.
Papers, your own documents and Traditional Chinese editions don't have it yet.
