Amazon has released version 8.1 of the Kindle for Android app and one of the new features is "free Kindle dictionaries for five new languages – Hindi, Tamil, Marathi, Gujarati, and Malayalam."

Although I don't read the language, I tried doing a dictionary lookup in Hindi for testing. When I checked the app storage I saw that the Hindi dictionary was downloaded in a new variant of KFX format. It is a SQLite database containing content encrypted by KFX DRM.

I wonder if this new Kindle dictionary format will be used for other languages going forward.
