What's New in Review Tab in Word 2013

We are pleased to learn the new features introduced in Word 2013; they include the Define option in the Review Menu option. This option defines the definitions of words and phrases and it does that using the Word Apps like the English Dictionary such as the Merriam-Webster Dictionary but before defining the words we need to install the dictionary by signing into a valid Windows Live Id and then a dictionary will automatically be added by the Office store.

Let's have a look using the following steps:

  1. Go to Microsoft Word 2013.
     
  2. Select the Blank Document template from the available templates.
