I've more or less got over this problem now, perhaps in a not very elegant way but it works well for me. I now read the majority of books on iPad, using Goodreader, and I brought a French dictionary called Antidote. I set up the book I'm reading and Antidote in multitasking mode. In Goodreader it is extremely easy to highlight and copy any word, missing out the apostrophe and the article if necessary, then flick across to the Antidote dictionary and paste the word in to search for a definition.
This kills two birds with one stone, it solves the article apostrophe problem and it gives access to a French dictionary that is light years ahead of the Kindle's Miriam Webster.
I have not completely given up on the Kindle though, I live in Crete and like to read outside sometimes, where the bright light rules out the iPad, so I keep a copy of the same book on both devices.
