Your Kindle comes pre-loaded with a dictionary, which is handy at times to look up various words and other things you may not know the definition or context the author is using. For example, the standard dictionary on my Kindle is called The New Oxford American Dictionary, and is the 2008 version published by the Oxford University Press; I find it ironic an American dictionary is published by a company with a UK-sounding name, as we don’t use the Queen’s version of English over here but then again, I have a strange sense of humor.

On your iPhone or iPad Kindle app, you can just purchase a dictionary from the Kindle store and it will work right off the bat. On Android however, it’s a bit more complicated, but not impossible.

Sense of humor aside, that brings up the point I want to make: what if you want to use some other dictionary, say in another language or one that uses the Queen’s English, or Spanish, a specialized topic, etc.?

A review of the Top 20 best-selling dictionaries you can make as your default Kindle dictionary has most of the “major” languages (defined in terms of the world’s population), each of which you can put on your Kindle.

The next question you will have is, “how do I make one of these my default dictionary” vs. staying with the default New Oxford dictionary. Of course I am going to tell you it is pretty easy (because it is), and here is how you do it for an e-Ink Kindle: Dahua smart player for mac.

I’ll start off with you need to buy or acquire from one of the free sites a new dictionary; I would stick with one from the Amazon Kindle store as they have been formatted and tested to work with your Kindle – I know, that’s not a free book, but the point I want to make is you want to make sure it works (and not giving you a bogus definition to boot). Additionally, if you don’t have another dictionary on your Kindle the following instructions will not work at all.
Once you have acquired this new dictionary and have it on your Kindle, go to your Kindle’s Home screen (press the “Home” button).
Press the “Menu” button.
Scroll down and select the “Settings” option.
Press the “Menu” button again.
Move the controller to underline the dictionary you want to use and select it.

For a Kindle Fire, while you can put as many dictionaries as you want on the device, it is very hard to change the default dictionary: you can change it to a different language (and get a free dictionary), but you can’t, as an example, make a medical dictionary your default dictionary. To make Spanish the default dictionary, you will need to change the language on your Fire. Here is how you do it courtesy of the Fire discussion board on the Amazon website:

The menus and default dictionary on Kindle Fire HD can be changed to support the following languages: English (United States), English (United Kingdom), French, Spanish, German, Italian, or Japanese.

To change the language on your Kindle Fire:

Swipe down from the top of the screen and tap More.
Tap Language & Keyboard.
Tap Device Language, and then tap your preferred language.

The menus and user interface language will change immediately to your new preferred language selection. You can also download a dictionary for your new language selection:

While reading, highlight a word in your preferred language.
In the lower-right corner of the dictionary dialog box, tap the language name.
Select your preferred language. A free dictionary for the language will download.

When the download is complete, you will see a definition of the word in your preferred language if the word appears in the dictionary. This will set the default dictionary to your preferred language.

Hope that helps!
