Dictionary ?

carpetmojo · 01-04-2012, 06:43 PM

Is there a short cut to the dictionary ? I'm used to my 650, tap on the word and you're in. I tried it on on the T1 - no joy.

I just did I think 7 moves to get to the T1 .

Long tap a word to bring up the definition

About dictionaries, does anyone using ColorDic with FBreader know how to get it to recognise conjugated words so you wouldn't have to delete the 's' after a plural form or 'ing' after a verb for the definition to show? Could it be related to the dictionary loaded into ColorDic and not either app itself?

Well, try a different dictionary in Colordict. Perhaps Oxford Concise English. I use the Babylon English dictionary in Goldendict and I don't have any problems with conjugated words whatsoever.

Hum... Same question, but for a spanish dictionary. I use Goldendict but could not find a spanish dictionary for it. Anyone has an idea where to find one maybe ?
