Hello,
Longtime user of kindle, Im thinking to switch to a kobo
The main reason is to be able to manage the books and the collections from Calibre. I can't do that with Kindle ans I've always thought the library was messy inside the kindle interface.

The kobo Libra 2 seems good to replace my KO.

But I'm looking for 2 features?
1) Is there a good dictionary ? (French, english, and French/English translation). Even If I need to buy it. Last time I tested a kobo, the dictionary was poor compared to my kindle.
2 ) Is there a "vocabulary builder" (im not sure how to name it in English) ? In Kindle there is one and it's nice, I can review the new words I've learned. It shows the context (the sentence in which the word was used), and then you can also see the definition. Then you can mark it as "learned" to remove it from the list.

Thank you.
