Best sideloaded dictionary?
I have a blacklisted PW2 that cannot use the default Kindle dictionary. But I am able to use a .mobi dictionary (WordNet 3 Easy) by sideloading it. I have tried some other e-reader dictionaries but the WordNet 3 Easy is the only one that seems to integrate with the Kindle UI, the rest are not available to select as the default dictionary when long-pressing words.
The only issue is that the WordNet 3 Easy dictionary isn't very good, and lacks a lot of definitions that I need. Are there any other dictionaries that can be sideloaded like the WordNet 3 Easy that contain more word definitions? |

I luckily found a copy of the New Oxford American Dictionary in my Calibre library, apparently from one of my old registered Kindles. I sideloaded it and it is working fine!
