How to Search on a Kindle?
You can open and search the dictionary directly via keyboard input. For Kindle Paperwhite, you can do this by looking up a word, selecting More and then selecting Open Dictionary. For other models, you need to access the dictionary from your home page in the same way you would access a Kindle book.
In dictionary browse mode, start typing the word you want to look up, and you will see an index of words in the Dictionary that start with the letters you have typed in. Navigate to the word to select it and view the dictionary entry.
With over a quarter of a million permissible words, including inflected forms, this is the most extensive Scrabble dictionary ever published and is the ideal adjudication tool for anyone playing Scrabble.
Endorsed by Mattel and WESPA, the World English-Language Scrabble Players’ Association and is the essential reference for all Scrabble players.
