WordNet 3 Infused dictionaries - call for help

Nihli · 02-12-2014, 01:44 PM

Hi!

I searched but couldn't find anything specific about this issue on mobileread so:
I use kindle dictionaries a lot, thanks to them I learned reading german and spanish. Now I would really appreciate to learn reading french and italian but the problem is that I can't find suitable dictionary while searching throughout the internet. The only ones free are Wordnet 3 dictionaries here http://eb.lv/dict/#ez .

The questions is why the don't want to work on my kindle? They just don't look up any word. The metadata is set, other free dictionaries are working quite good and I can't find a way to solve this issue. If this problem is insolvable can you help me finding some italian-english or italian-polish and french-english or french-polish dictionaries?

I have kindle keyboard wifi edition if that is of any help.

Many thanks for help!

Downloaded en-it and en-fr WordNet dictionaries and put them at my Kindle Keyboard.
Both work perefectly when selected as primary dictionaries, pop-up translation even works for inflections with all my English books.
Are you sure that your English books have correctly set language metadata?
