Thanks. Has anyone any experience of these? I need a good French one that works as it's supposed to, that is a dictionary that treats é like e etc. to make it easy to look up words. I downloaded a decent French dictionary somewhere but I can't click on words like énumérer in the text and end up at the right place in the dictionary, because it's treated like four different words (é + num + é + rer), and I only have the .dic file, so I can't fix it myself. But https://store.obreey.com/eng/dictionaries/30 looks nice – if it's ok. Does anyone know?

Edit: Well, I thought the price seemed reasonable enough, so I bought it, but it doesn't work either.

Edit 2: After some testing it seems like the problem is the epub format rather than the dictionary. If I convert epub > fb2 it works just fine. Maybe it has something to do with the choice of reader as well? Well, I just wanted to add that my earlier description of the dictionary wasn't entirely fair.
