Hi,

Need some help here.

I copied and saved some Japanese text as a txt file format into the Kindle Paperwhite.

When I tried to select individual words, the Kindle would select the whole paragraph instead. As a result, I can't check the meanings of the words. It calls up the correct Japanese-to-English dictionary though.

---

I've tried converting the txt file into a mobi file. When I select individual words, the Kindle doesn't know what language that is and hence can't call up the dictionary.

---

Anyone has experience or ideas on how to solve this?
