Reverse interlinear for iPad

Hi all, as I understand it, it is not possible to achieve a reverse interlinear view in an iPad (as you might on the desktop app). Would anyone have workarounds to achieve the same effect? In short, I hope to be reading the English text, and have the corresponding Hebrew / Greek lemma below each word (so the lookup function won’t work). Thanks very much!

    Bumping as this post has not received a response.

    Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

    As far as I know, there are no "reverse interlinear" books. There are, however, regular interlinears. You would have the Hebrew or Greek on top and an English translation below. The order would be according to the original languages, not in the order you would find in an English translation.

    The functionality of a RI on iPad would be the select a word and use the popup to find the info you'd fine in a RI
