Hi jelinekcz. None of the current MacBook Air models have a Force Touch trackpad. Lookup or look up, using Quick Look technology, can be engaged with a three finger tap on the trackpad. It is enabled by navigating to > System Preferences > Trackpad > Point & Click and selecting Look up, if not already selected. Which pop-up overlay is displayed depends upon the context and what element is selected. For a selected word(s), it may be Dictionary, Thesaurus, Apple glossary, Wikipedia, music album info, or a news article. For web page links, it will be an inline preview of a web page. For Finder file icons, it will be a preview of a file's content. This can also be done with a press on the Spacebar key.
