That being said, the Kindles definitely are the winner when it comes to dictionaries offered. When I look up a word on the Kobo, the definition is usually only a few words where as on the Kindle has a much more complete definition.
I've not found a problem with the definitions. I've been able to understand what the word means.

I don't know if I am correct or not. I'll have to try reading a book that has some British words to see if they appear in the dictionary.
