Thanks for coming back to my post; I already have defined my default dictionary in Main Menu / Menu / Settings / Device Options / Language and Dictionaries / Dictionaries / English /

This so far works fine.

The point is, that on my device I do not see the arrow in the first line of my pop up screen, so that I can not choose another one (in case the word is not in my default dictionary or I want further background information of a word).

Normally there should be this window with the arrow:

"While looking up a word on the new Kindle Paperwhite (by tapping on it), you’ll see a little popup with a headline containing the name of your current dictionary. Next to the dictionary’s name, there’s a little arrow.

kindle-paperwhite-dictionary
By tapping the arrow, you get a list of all your currently installed dictionaries:"

Or do your answer mean, that this functionality is working only on the old 2012 PW? That would - from my point of view - not make any sense.
