1. A computer-implemented method of presenting on a first communication device additional content for at least one word of text in a message, the computer-implemented method comprising:
as implemented by one or more computing devices configured with specific computer-executable instructions, receiving a transmission from a second communication device via a communication network based at least in part on an identifier of the first communication device, wherein the transmission comprises a message, wherein the message includes text, the text including one or more words for which additional content is available, wherein the one or more words and the additional content are associated with the identifier of the first communication device at a remote computing device prior to receipt of the transmission; presenting the text on the first communication device, said presenting including emphasizing in the text the one or more words for which additional content is available as one or more emphasized words; receiving, by the first communication device, an utterance comprising at least one emphasized word of the one or more emphasized words; communicating the utterance and the identifier of the first communication device from the first communication device to the remote computing device; receiving, by the first communication device, the additional content for the at least one emphasized word, wherein the additional content for the at least one emphasized word is determined by the remote computing device based at least in part on an association, at the remote computing device, of (a) the at least one emphasized word and (b) the additional content for the at least one emphasized word, with the identifier of the first communication device; and presenting, on the first communication device, the additional content received for the at least one emphasized word.
