Rarely.
However, if I read at home, I always have a dictionary at hand, just in case.
Re: As a native speaker, will you use dictionary when reading newspaper?
I prefer an online dictionary.
It's quicker and better, if you have a laptop or tablet at hand.

My question to EngFan:
Do you use a dictionary when you read a newspaper in your native language?

I think itīs a strange question, anyway in my own language, Spanish, I donīt use any dictionary when I read a newspaper.
Re: As a native speaker, will you use dictionary when reading newspaper?
I haven't had a newspaper force me to consult a dicitonary in quite awhile. I really only need a dictionary when I'm confronted with a lot of technical jargon.

I've had to use a dictionary when reading The Wall Streer Journal. I have never needed one when reading USA Today.
