Hi All,

I have just bought a Kindle Paperwhite and it seems to be a great reader. Only one major disappointment for me => Limited language support.

I would love to have a Dutch dictionary (which was default on my Sony PRS-T1). I have contacted Amazon support but they say that they cannot help me.

I have found a Dutch EPUB dictionary and after a whole day of trying, I have been able to convert it to mobi format (Calibre couldn't handle a file with so many indexes).

However, my kindle does not recognize this file as a dictionary. Is there any way to change this?

Or does anybody know how to find / add / create a dictionary in languages other than those supported by Amazon?

I would be so grateful for your help! :-)

Thanks!
