I want to get the best possible dictionary for KOReader. Does anyone have the Oxford English Dictionary in a way that is usable by KOReader? Or does anyone know of a similar dictionary?

What about dictionaries in other languages? Any way to convert Kobo dictionaries to KOReader dictionaries?

Best English dictionary in my opinion is Oxford Dictionary of English. This is default dictionary for Kobo ereader. I don't know a lot about KOReader, but it seems it uses Stardict dictionary. I uploaded my own stardict convertion of ODoE on my brench("Stardict_-_Oxford_Dictionary_of_English.zip" you need to unzip it). I hope it works (it should): https://gitlab.com/grilj.anze/e-reader-dictionaries-kobo-txt/-/tree/d83d17d2d006a13f0b406a6065cb04ae729d6153/

Thank you!

Can you also do this with other languages? The PT-PT (Portuguese, from Portugal) dictionary on Kobo is quite ok. I would love to have it available on KOReader.
