English - German dictionary
Hi,
I already read a few threads about dictionaries here. So I found also the way how to do it. But I do not have a english-german dictionary and did not find one (free) to download in the internet. In some threads I read that some of you already have one and also convert it to (w/o DRM) MOBI. I would appreciate if someone could upload it for me. That would be great! Please me. |

I still keep looking in the internet, but I still didn't find a free dictionary.
If maybe one of you know where to find one, which works with kindel. I really need one, because I read a lot of english book and it would be easier to look up the word directly. So I still hope someone of you can help me out in this point. Please! |

You can download a free Stardict Dictionary from here:
http://www.stardict.org/forum/viewto...f=10&t=1036371 and convert first to text then to mobi format. Or you can buy: http://www.libri.de/shop/action/prod...h_deutsch.html but you have to remove the DRM |

Thank you very much for your answer!
But I have to confess, I'm not able to convert it. But I keep on try it. Edit: Changed so it isn't against some rules anymore Last edited by Seiyuuki; 08-12-2010 at 12:03 PM. |

You are asking people to do something that is illegal as well as a violation of the rules of this board. A moderator is likely to advice you to reconsider.

I'm sorry for that.
I did not mind it that way. I will delete the post and hope to find a way to do it for my own. |

You can find the information for converting the stardict dictionary here: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...=stardict+mobi
But you need to convert the startdict.ifo file to a text file. I did this under Linux with pyglossary. I don't know how to do this under Windows. |

I'm really not good at this
At the moment i'm thinking about to by a dictionary from Mobipocket. But before I buy it, is it really practical to use it at Kindle for look up? (Now let's see if I find a way to strip drm... ) |

actually depending where OP is located it may not be illegal to remove DMR (recent court rulling in the U.S. have allowed owners of DVDs/CDs/mp3s to remove DMR for the purpose of making personal copies). of course it is still against forum rules... just my $0.2
here is one of many articles: http://thenextweb.com/us/2010/07/26/...gal-sometimes/ just search in google: court ruling makes DMR removal legal Last edited by mattbiernat; 08-12-2010 at 04:47 PM. |

Thank you all for your help!
You are great!!! I bought one, get rid of DRM and tried hours for hours to convert it to mobi-format. And now I get a hint, that it works fine as PRC on Kindle. So it was. It works great and it was easy to set is at new dictionary. So everything is fine. Now I can go on reading my english books. |
