			is there a copy of the Online Etymology Dictionary (etymonline) that exists in a kobo-compatible format? i feel like i’m losing my mind — i could swear i’ve seen posts about this in the past, but i just haven’t been able to find anything using google, kagi, or even this site’s search feature. i know that various other dictionaries exist with etymologies — the older, 2019 version of OED (which i have installed), the ones from reader-dict.com (which are based on wiktionary) — but etymonline is just so good and detailed. |

			Speaking of this, I have tried to convert several Serbian->english dictionaries I have found (some goldendict format, others babylon) to use with the kobo with the use of pyglossary to no avail. The only dictionaries that I can get to seem to work are one that I have bought from reader-dict, or ones that were verified from this thread. (Bulgarian -> eng one from here works great). Any tips or ideas to what I might be doing wrong on the converting end?

			You have not provided a link to it. Finding this dictionary was a difficult challenge... I haven't checked, try. PHP Code:

			Here is "fictionary" for R. Scott Bakker Prince of Nothing and The Second Apocalypse. It was quite a lot of work to make nice formatting. I scrapped the whole Wikipedia. With some minor information missing. Very powerful dictionary, but be careful could be some spoilers if you read too much of it.

 R. Scott Bakker Prince of Nothing R. Scott Bakker The Second Apocalypse For entire series. V2 includes ENTIRE Wikipedia + Full English dictionary. All nicely formatted and optimized for using on Kobo devices. Reason why I added English dictionary is because I got tired of switching between dictionaries. If somebody wants V2 without it, let me know. | |
