Steve,
You're doing better than me. I can't get that web view to read regardless.
I, too, have that issue with it repeating, but no matter how many times I
try flicking around, it won't read the definition, come hell're high water.
Chris.

I ignore the web view and carry on swiping right. For me, on a Nexus 5, it
repeats the stuff at the top of the page - Look Up, dictionary settings
button, the word I'm looking up - and then it reads the definition. I don't
know why it doesn't just read the web view, but at least I can get the
definition.
I've also found that when I hit the back button a couple of times to go back
to my book, it takes about 10 seconds before I can get any response from
TalkBack at all, so I have to wait before I can start reading again.
Steve

OK, I'm using the B&N Nook app.
It says in the accessibility tutorial that you can slide your finger down
the screen with explore by touch, then double tap on a line of text to open
the actions menu, then can look up a word in the local dictionary, or on
Google. I do have the english 35 or so local dictionary installed, yes.
When I look up a word, it's doing it just fine, but as soon as I hit the web
view, whether I flick, or whether I just slide my finter down the screen,
nothing reads. It doesn't really get hung, but it just makes that web view
swish sound, and won't go any further within the web view content. The
accessibility doc says you can do it, which leads me to think they're
stating with Talkback, you can do it.
I'm on the most recent version of the Nook app, just installed it not even a
half an hour or so ago. I'm using KitKat 4.43, and no, this is not a custom
modded rom or anything. It's just the default Android OS that comes on the
Moto X. My Nexus 7 tab is also having issues with this though, so I don't
think it's an OS issue per sé.
Chris.
