Dictionary Removal?

[Richwood]

On newer Kindle readers is there any way to remove a added downloaded dictionary from the device other than doing so from the "Manage your Content and Devices" page on Amazon? Downloaded purchased dictionaries seem to go directly to the dictionaries directory, not shown in the main index of books. Going to the dictionaries listing in the "Language and Dictionaries" area only seems to allow choosing a active dictionary with no dictionary removal option available that I can find. Nothing in the manuals either it seems. Current Kindle manuals have minimal content compared to the ones for older devices.

If you can figure out the name of the dictionary you can delete it from the Documents folder (or a subfolder of that) when connected over USB.

Do a search from your Kindle on the word "dictionary" and choose to show all. Find the one you want to remove, and long press. You should then get the option to "Remove From Device" (at least that's how it worked for me)
