Cut, Copy, Paste, and Replace
As soon as you've made a selection, a pop-up control appears. Tap a command to perform the corresponding activity (commands vary somewhat from one app to the next):
Cut: Cuts the selected item, and puts it on the Clipboard.
Copy: Copies the selected item, and puts it on the Clipboard without removing it.
Paste: Replaces the selection with the contents of the Clipboard. Tapping Paste when nothing is selected inserts the contents of the Clipboard without replacing anything.
Replace: If you've selected just one word, tap Replace to show possible alternative spellings.
