Hi,
I converted the french wiktionary from this GitHub project:
https://github.com/BoboTiG/ebook-reader-dict
This project extract every day dictionaries from Wiktionary in several languages. So, the work I made could easiliy be done for other language too.
The french version I made is base on the 28th of January 2021. It contains more than
1.5 millions word !
It is downloadable here:
https://gofile.io/d/a27MMk
The .dic file must be copied into the "system\dictionaries" folder of your Pocketbook reader. (Note: the "System" folder is hidden)
Any comment and suggestion is welcomed !
------------------
If you want to make the convertion yourself, here are the steps to proceed:
# 1 ## Download the woktionary in the Stardict format:
https://github.com/BoboTiG/ebook-reader-dict
I used the french version:
https://github.com/BoboTiG/ebook-rea...eleases/tag/fr
# 2 ## Convert the Stardict files to a XDXF file using Linguae 0.15.
Download Linguae here:
https://linguae.stalikez.info/
# 3 ## Proceed to some cleanup of the XDXF with the "sed" tools:
1) Change the dictionary name : "Wiktionnaire"
2) Remove colors codes not needed on reader : #([0-9a-fA-F]){6}
3) Add "\n" after each </li> : this truncates long lines to avoid crash of the Pocketbook converter (step 4)
4) Add "#" at the beginning of definitions : a matter of look and lisibility. Change to whatever you like...
5) For french wiktionary, remove <i>(Date ŕ préciser)</i> : this text is useless for readers. Change the text to your language.
I used this light and standalone sed for windows:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mb...ed-4.8-x64.exe
and used this command:
sed -e "s/<full_name>.*<\/full_name>/<full_name>Wiktionnaire<\/full_name>/" -e "s/\(<\/li>\)/\1\n/g" -e "s/#\([0-9a-fA-F]\)\{6\}//g" -e "s/<li>/<li># /g" -e "s/<i>(Date .* pr.*ciser)<\/i>//g" dict.xdxf >Wiktionnaire.xdxf
# 4 ## Convert to Pocketbook format:
The official converter can be downloader here:
https://support.pocketbook-int.com/d...yConverter.zip
This version includes only few "locales" files. The "fr" local was not included.
These locales are available in an older version in this post:

The file is here:
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/at...4&d=1435862948
I used this patched version of the converter which avoid crash with long XDXF content:

To convert the file from XDXF to Pocketbook format:
converter Wiktionnaire.xdxf fr
=> Create: Wiktionnaire.dic
