In a text box can I trigger a single word in a paragraph and trigger that one word to play an audio file or a tooltip?

Sorry for a newbie question. I'm coming over from another eLearning tool which can't do that and I need to be able to trigger from single words (audio pronunciations and tooltips) in order to teach a foreign language I'm trying to develop an elearning app for. Thanks for the help.

Hi Ted, you can put a hotspot on a word to trigger a layer or a audio, video etc. do whatever you like.

If I put a hotspot on a word when it goes responsive will that hotspot stay over the
word in the textbox?- JoanneChenSuper Hero
If you only use SL, it will. (Not sure if it still will when importing into Rise.) But I think Phil's suggestion is even better. You can use the hyperlink and change the font format to be the same as the paragraph; that way, they won't affect the reading experience. When users hover over the hyperlink word, it will change to hyperlink format as a hover state.

or add a hyperlink which can have any trigger. Storyline is not responsive so the hotspot will not move

Thanks. I was following closely. I didn't think I could do it.
