Digging in the fora I think I understand that at some point in time one firmware upgrade for some pocketbook model included as a bonus the Zingarelli. I don't know if that file has been circulated since.

OTOH, it may be possible to convert the vocabulary you have in .dic format. See e.g. https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=325203 . I myself would like to get it in StarDict format for KOreader if possible (I'm not aware of a toolchain for converting .dic to StarDict, only the opposite).

Lastly, I found on my disk also a smaller Zanichelli Italian Dictionary.ld2 (2.9MB which may still be a respectable size). I completely forgot what format it was and where I got it from.

ETA: oh, the zip from https://www.mobileread.com/forums/at...5&d=1347238978 contains also a plain txt file. Converting to StarDict may be easy.

In order to standardize separator value I used the regex below:

^(.*?)\s{2,}

And replaced all with this value on VSCode Find & Replace:

$1\t

Afterwards, I converted the file to StarDict format via PyGlossary.

Many thanks. My problem were not the regexp to use to remove previous artifacts form the text file, but the fact that I couldn't get pyglossary to work anymore, probably due to upgrades and mixups in my python installation.

Markismus has also provided a version, with some specific tweaks for KOreader, btw
