kindle dictionary selection for ebook
I have a Latin ebook which I have sent to my Kindle cloud and which I am trying to read on the kindle app on my iphone. I have confirmed in Cailbre that the language metadata is marked "Latin" - but when I highlight a word I want to look up Kindle does not default to the Latin dictionary I have installed but always to another - and it is not always the same one, it seems to be guessing! Generally I have found that if Kindle gets the default dictionary wrong for a book, when I manually select a dictionary while reading it will stick - but with this ebook no such luck. Any time I want to look up a word, I must manually select the correct dictionary. I should mention that I have other Latin ebooks which do not have this problem, so it isn't universal.
Unlike on the actual Kindle device, there seems to be no way to set set dictionary settings on the iphone app, so I cannot over-ride the app's dictionary deicison.
Anyone know what could be causing this and if there is a way to fix it?
Thanks!
