You must select a dictionary.

Did u guys have to buy a separate dictionary just for the kindle white? I thought it came with one. I had a dictionary with my old kobo reader. If i transfer it to paper white, does anybody know if it will work with it?

Thanks for the help
1. You must set up a Collection called "Dictionaries".

2. Go to the Cloud and download at least two dictionaries.

3. Move the two dictionaries to the "Dictionaries" Collection.

4. Go to Home \ Settings \ Device Options \ Language and Dictionaries \ Dictionaries \ English.

5. Select one dictionary. If you have the New Oxford American Dictionary there, you can select another one.

6. Then every word held with a long press will first go to your selected dictionary for the definition. If it is not there, it will go to the New Oxford American Dictionary.
