- Check a word while the reading context is fresh.
- Keep reading notes and word questions in one chat.
- Use meaning and origin details to deepen comprehension.

- 1Connect Telegram and Dictionary api to Notis in the portal.
- 2Create an automation prompt asking Notis to look up the word explicitly marked in a Telegram reading note.
