Kindle Paperwhite (7.Gen) showing brackets when translating

Hi folks!

I'm new here.

I am the proud owner of a Kindle Paperwhite (7. Generation) and I have a problem:

Whenever I want to translate a single word from English to German (by lon pressing it), the brackets for selecting multiple word always show up as well. This was not the case until a few days ago - maybe it has something to do with an update. Back then, the brackets only showed up if I selected multiple words, but now it happens when selecting a single word as well.

The problem is that if I translate a single word and press on the background to exit the translation mode, the brackets often (not always!) stay so I have to press on the background in twice in order to enter the reading mode again.

This can be pretty annoying, especially since this was not the case until now.

I have made screenshots of what it looks like:

I just want to ask you if this occurs on your Paperwhites as well and if you found a solution.

Thank you in advance!
