Find Best Price at Amazon"I see a lot of reviews that say something like, "All I had to do is change it in "settings" to my default dictionary"... After I downloaded the Spanish dictionary, it set itself up as the default Spanish dictionary, and left the default English dictionary in place."
"You hook your kindle into you computer, copy all the Spanish books on it to your "Library", delete them from your Kindle, then edit the metadata to change the language tag to English."
"PROS: The dictionary's good points include: (1) it recognizes most words that I didn't know; (2) it recognizes inflected forms of verbs and usually directs the user to the correct infinitive (Sometimes, though, the dictionary "thinks" that the word meant is a verb when perhaps the word is an adjective or noun spelled the same way as some verb form. ); (3) The Kindle recognizes that some books are in Spanish and defaults to this dictionary (on at least three books with which I have tried this dictionary), while the pre-installed English dictionary remains the default when I am reading English books."
"Be careful with this one - It is a great dictionary but it is only Spanish to English and not back and forth as expected."
"What I end up doing is guessing at what the verb or base word might be, looking up that word and getting an answer."
"On my Kindle Keyboard, the search function lists the words and so if I am not sure of the spelling, then it lists the Spanish words near the word I search for, and then I can correct for spelling. On the Kindle Keyboard, the search option takes me to the part of the dictionary close to the word I searched for, so at least I am near what I am looking for if I don't know the spelling. I assumed that if I searched for an English word, that search function would take me to the location of that word in the book just like it does for a novel."

Find Best Price at Amazon"One of the things I hated when younger and studying Russian was the constant need to look up words in a dictionary but e-readers make looking up words so easy that I now find myself looking up more English words when reading, for a variety of reasons (not to miss a possibly subtle point by a great author, to see the etymology of a word, etc.). And as even the negative reviews have mentioned, if a word is not found using the integrated look up - the reason I and probably most others purchased it - words can still be found by manually searching."
"I find that this works quite well with my Kindle and my Android and iOS Kindle apps."
"I'm almost tempted to give it a 5 because it is so much better than the one that came with my kindle."
"I'm halfway through reading the first Harry Potter book in French, and this dictionary has found all but a handful of words."
"As many of us know, the fun of reading can disappear rather quickly when you're forced to put down the book and look up a word in the dictionary every two or three minutes. This version of the dictionary doesn't do a good job with words preceded by "d'" and "l'" --- but even then, you just press "Home" to put down the book, go into the French-English dictionary, and type the word you're looking for."
"I own a Basic Kindle and because this book is coded as being in English, it is not selectable as being a default French dictionary."
"A mistake."

Because; 1) I'd like read/check preface, explanatory chart, explanatory notes, and so on this dictionary (it meaning, I'd like to read preface and appendixes of Webster). So, I recommend hardcover type dictionary even it's very heavy :) However, when I opened the dictionary at first..."
"When using it as a writer (I know the word, but not its spelling, nor if I completely understand the word I seek to use) and not as a reader, I would have been more pleased if those who had added electronic usability had also made it more intuitive to those of us with poorer ability to spell by more simply allowing the browsing for a word as is done with a paper dictionary."
"Finally, Merriam Webster's Collegiate Dictionary is a very good all-purpose dictionary, including as it does everything from basic vocabulary, to technical words, spanning the entire history of modern English up to the present."
"The dictionary I recommend to my college composition classes."
"JUST WHAT I WANTED--WRAPPED FAB."
"This was a gift."
"I bought this after being unhappy with some of the New Oxford definitions."

On both his online site and in this book, Nicholas' very well grounded concept of teaching English fluency is stated: `The more you interact with the language, the better your English fluency will become. These methods include reading online news published in English, practice thinking in English, listening to English podcasts, songs and also watching English movies with subtitles in your native language. `. Nicholas shares Learning Secrets: Use self talk (good learners talk to themselves in English), Repeat (great learners repeat what they learn), Ask questions (each time you as the questions, you'll hear more English), Try a new approach (good learners will try new ways of learning), Try to say more (good learners try to keep talking English), Start conversations, Label things in English, Visualize, Use your whole body (good learners use body movements to help them remember), Keep an audio journal, Make phone calls in English, Make lists (organize your learning), Exaggerate (makes things easier to remember), and Shadow what you hear."
