Thank you for your answer.
Really? I tried to export it from excel with tab delimited. Strange. I added the .zip with the four excel files. The most important one would be the Greenlandic_English one. Could you, or someone, convert that into a tab .txt format and I can try again to convert it into a useable dictionary? Hopefully it'll work then. (I know the file has some entries that won't be readable because they are inconsistenly formatted, but that's fine. At least some are useable.) The problem though is that Mobireader Creator doesn't have the language code for Greenlandic (Kalaallisut). I honestly don't even wonder. I always took English (Canada) (It's the nearest to Greenland ^^). I really appreciate your help. Thanks a lot! |

Converted your txt file to utf8 and applied tab2opf with option -utf.
See attached. |

Hey, thank you, thank you, thank you!
It works, I am fascinated. Of course, morphological complexe words often can't be find (Greenlandic is a polysynthetic language where not rarely 12 morphemes with objects, attributes etc. are combined in one word. I guess a dictionary couldn't master that.) But the shorter words can now be searched. I really thank you! I wish you all Merry Christmas. Greetings, Kevin |

E.g. if an hypothetical Greenlandic word ABCD will often occur with a prefix aaa and/or a suffix bbb, you could add them as inflections (aaaABCD, ABCDbbb, aaaABCDbbb etc.). For more information on inflections, see the Kindle Publishing Guidelines and the Mobipocket website. Quote:

It did not work? Damn. But then it has be Georgian, nobody reads in Georgian. =P
There was once a page where the words were analysed automatically and put into a morphological tree. But I can't remember the site, all I know is this: http://giellatekno.uit.no/cgi/d-kal.eng.html It can disambiguate or hyphenate the input. But I don't know whether they have a database that could be used, most of their functionality doesn't work anymore, only some analysis tools are available anymore. But I can't really find something by the key words you gave. There is something like that for Inuktitut, closely related to Greenlandic, but every morpheme had to be changed because of sound changes. |

tab2opf seperated my txt file to 4 pieces of html. but it doesn't use the UTF-8. I have a problem with special letters. How could I solve this problem?
I tried different methods (calibre, etc) for creating html to use mobigen/kindlegen but this time my kindle doesn't see my dict as dict. |

That's the normal behavior. It'll split up large files into several smaller files.

If you're familiar with regular expressions, you could also convert the tab-delimited text file directly using a couple of regular expressions. |
