I'd like to do a small test, if you wouldn't mind. Using the Kindle's "Vocabulary Builder" feature, I see that the last 10 words I've looked up in the Kindle's dictionary have been:

Aestivate
Pisé
Monorchidism
Droshky
Pahlavi
Uremic
Postiche
Louche
Catabolism
Zazen

All of these words are defined in the Kindle's dictionary. Could someone take a look and see how many of them are present in the Kobo's dictionary, please?
