-Special design for users who need to study / use dict in long time and/or high frequency: choose the best theme / color; change the density of information (define box in the same tab with wordlist or has its own tab, change text font size, paragraph space; portrait or landscape. In other words, user can modify the amount of information he can read at once).
-Concern about using two hands (two fingers) to speed up use
