The dictionary that comes with my kindle paperwhite is not very complete. For example I like to read classics. Classical books have many words that are not currently used or are little known today, and every time I translate, the meanings of many complex words do not appear. Is there a way to change from the default dictionary?
I have logged into my Amazon account and went to the dictionaries part of the kindle and there is only one option for my language (Spanish). I feel that this dictionary is old or not complete. There are too many words that do not show their meaning.
I DON'T WANT TO ACTIVATE THE WIFI BECAUSE I ALWAYS FORGET IT ON AND THE NEXT DAY THE BATTERY IS ALMOST 5%.
