I am actually just looking for English language dictionaries, preferably those that are free or don't cost very much. Sadly, I cannot speak, read or write any other language; my two years of French in high school, 40+ years ago, didn't really stick.
I am sure I can find a suitable translation dictionary in the 30 that Amazon has already provided me should I need to translate a 'foreign' word.
The default Oxford American/English dictionaries Amazon chose for the PW are good dictionaries, but I wanted to add one or two more. I would love to have an etymological dictionary of the English language available to the look up function, too. Oh well!
I just download Webster's Unabridged Dictionary from Amazon's Kindle store; it was the vintage 1923 edition and apparently it isn't formatted correctly either as my PW did not recognize it in order to automatically put it into the Dictionary folder. Anyone know if the Kindle recognizes the Chambers Dictionary of the English language?
I read through the Dictionary FAQ sticky hoping to see a list of possibilities but didn't see much, most of the thread has to do with making your own dictionaries by using various programs to change metadata, etc. I really wasn't looking for a way to reinvent the wheel, though, (too lazy??) just wanted a link to some decent dictionaries that work with the Kindle look up function.
