Hey r/Android, I made a system wide dictionary. I found it too tedious to open the dictionary app and type in the word to see its meaning. If you can copy a word, you can see its meaning RIGHT THERE. No need to interrupt what you're doing.
It also works fully offline.

Instadict sort of does one of the things you're looking for.
You select a word, copy it, and shake the device. Then it pops up the definition of the word. You can adjust how hard you shake the phone to trigger the app.
Hey r/Android, even wanted to check a word's meaning but were too lazy to stop what you were doing and open the dictionary app? Well no more! Just copy the word and shake your phone to get its meaning right there!!
You can also bookmark words and refer to them later.
Now supports Marshmallow features like permissions and auto-backup.

Instadict is a dictionary app that feels like a system-wide built-in dictionary when you use it. You highlight a word, copy it to clipboard, and shake the phone, and it'll pop the definition at the bottom. You can adjust how hard you shake your phone to trigger the app.
Moon is an Android reader app. It's decent but I think there may be a better app out there.

Okay Google... define cromulent
>Cromulent is an adjective that was coined by David X. Cohen. Since it was coined, it has appeared in Dictionary.com's 21st Century Lexicon. The meaning of cromulent is inferred only from its usage, which indicates that it is a positive attribute. Dictionary.com defines it as meaning fine or acceptable. Ben Macintyre has written that it means "valid or acceptable".
