I'm not sure, whether the dictionary functionality will "survive" any conversion. You might end up with a standard document instead of a dictionary.
Kindle's format basically is the Mobipocket format. This would be the perfect format for your dictionary on Kindle.
For conversion, "calibre" from Kovid Goyal always is a good choice. You find a dedicated forum for "calibre" here in mobileread. And Kovid Goyal frequently posts himself, so you can raise any questions directly to him.
