I just did some checks with translation dictionaries that we've published. It looks like Amazon left things half-done.
Their intention seemed to be to enable simultaneous use of several dictionaries (French, if you are reading a French book, German, if you are reading German, etc). That is why in dictionary settings, there is individual selection for every language.
But in reality only English dictionaries are used when looking up words in a book, regardless of the book's language.
I'm pretty sure you can work around it by modding the dictionary file so that Kindle will think a German-English dictionary is indeed an English one. It will then be available for selection as default dictionary and will be used for word look up. I'll investigate this further.
