Therefore when I lookup a word, it uses the English dictionary and I cannot change it without resetting the metadata in Calibre. I'm sure this issue will be resolved in firmware.
Bummer that you cannot select alternate dictionary from the definition window. They must have branched the code before they added that feature to PW1. In any case I'd report the metadata error to Amazon.
