Digital Contents > Manage Your Contents and Devices > Books > Dictionaries & User Guides > Oxford Spanish - English Dictionary > Deliver
(The dictionary will be automatically downloaded to your Voyage the next time you connect to your Amazon account with your Voyage via Wifi.)
BTW, if you don't intend to look up English words in this book, you could change the language metadata of the book to Spanish with Calibre or JMME. |
Thank you very much!
I had earlier added the Oxford English Spanish dictionary directly from some Voyage menu, but that goes the wrong direction for me. I was not able to find a Spanish English dictionary the same way or by searching the Amazon store from the device. I also had no luck with the Amazon web site from a computer.
When I followed your Digital Contents > Manage Your Contents and Devices > Books > Dictionaries & User Guides suggestion, it was sorted newest to oldest, and I again only saw the English to Spanish dictionary. When I changed to sort to descending alphabetical, the Spanish English dictionary finally appeared.
I also discovered that clicking the [...] button to the right of the selection checkbox brought up a pop-up with a thumbnail of the cover and links for download and deliver, so I went the download route.
One thing that puzzles me is that for both download and deliver, my only available choice was the Voyage. The entries for all my other Kindles and other devices were grayed out.
