Otherwise, the Kindle Mobipocket dictionaries always support inflections (exactly the same happens with Mobipocket for PC)
I guess I am talking exactly about this situation. I noticed that different dictionaries have different systems to deal with inflections and in one Spanish dictionary that I have all inflected forms indeed appear in the listing index. So, you might be right that it is possible to achieve the same functionality.

But it is strange that for some dictionaries inflections work in the pup-up texts but not when typing in the dictionary index search. The in-built The New Oxford American Dictionary which instead have added a lot of redirect entries. That probably caused my confused. All these little things seem unimportant until you need them.
