This caused me great confusion initially, as it appeared that all the regex expressions had no results.

I think we may be both reading / converting the same book ! It's hard enough trying to learn the language without also having to decipher the conversion errors !
I found it in .chm format & converted it to epub OK, but not to mobi.
NB the background colours did not show up in the internal calibre mobi reader
I have not tried inside of Kindle for PC as I deleted the .mobi conversion once I realised it lacks this feature.
I'll probably just read the epub or the chm version on PC & abandon plans to get it onto my Kindle. - though I'm thinking that if I knew how to use the calibre conversion "more CSS" options box, I could have the words with background colours appear in BOLD instead in the mobi conversion.
