Is there a way to bind the chrome style look up in dictionary to a key binding? In case you don't know what function I'm talking about here's a screenshot:
MacOS – Look up in dictionary

The dictionaries are stored in...
/Library/Dictionaries
~/Library/Dictionaries
On iOS7: the dictionary can be selected from the definition screen.
On iOS6: From my experience, switching the keyboard language is enough to change the dictionary language.
First you'll have to add the keyboards you need (this is a one-time operation):
- Go to Settings -> General -> Keyboard -> Keyboards -> Add New Keyboard.
- Select all the languages you're interested in.
Now you can use the key that is located to the left of the space bar in order to use a different keyboard (a list is displayed on long press).

The default keyboard shortcut for Define is⇧⌘D. This isn't a Google Chrome feature—rather, it's an OS X and iOS feature using Dictionary.app.
