The first bunch of Kindles (and still true for 4 models) had essentially just basic Roman & Latin A, even though running Linux and it had been a solved problem 10+ years earlier. Even twenty years earlier DOS had better multiligual support than Amazon Kindle till models with azw3 released. Fortunately some early models (K3 oldest, but not DXG) got backported FW updates for azw3.
At least it's solvable now on Kobo and azw3. Still, Kobo is owned by Rakuten (also do Viber Chat) who is Japanese!
