I have now been able to switch the input and output languages for both the Spanish-English and French-English Merriam Webster dictionaries, and both now work correctly. When I tried to do this on PC and then upload to Kindle, either by USB connection or using Send To Kindle, this failed. But when I used MobiMetaEditor to edit the azw files already installed on the Kindle, then deleted the originals leaving just the edited copies with input and output languages switched, this worked.
Worked immediately for Spanish, but I had first to set the French dictionary as default, allow it look up a translation, then reset an Oxford English dictionary as default, leaving the French dictionary to activate automatically for French text, which it now does. I suspect that I may have set the French directory as default and forgotten that when I edited and then deleted the original, causing temporary confusion.
