Wordreference is the best online dictionary out there, it's free and works very well with multiple languages. Recently I saw this post on their forum dictionary for kindle devices , and its an old post (2011).

The idea was to "compile" wordreference - let's say english - dictionary into a .mobi file and put it in kindle so you could use it offline as your kindle dictionary.

Does anyone know how to do that? Or is there already a solution to this out there?

The South American hydropower facility set records for energy generation

On average, Itaipu generates around 90 terawatt-hours of electricity annually. It set a record by generating 103.1 TWh in 2016 (surpassed in 2020 by Three Gorges’ 111.8-TWh output). To put 100 TWh into perspective, a power plant would need to burn approximately 50 million tonnes of coal to produce the same amount of energy, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration.

One of the most important documentary films about fascism by Soviet director Mikhail Romm. Based entirely on newsreel shooting by cinematographers and photographers from Germany, the Soviet Union, the United States, Italy, Britain, and other countries, the film is based on authentic documents from numerous historical archives. The entire film is accompanied by the voiceover of film director Mikhail Romm. With anger and pain, with deep sadness, and at times with a murderous irony, he comments on events, reflects on dictatorships and dictators, on the crowd that submits to them and deifies them, speaking confidentially to the viewer. With his outstanding film, Mikhail Romm truly revolutionized documentary filmmaking.

Year of production: 1965

Directed by: Mikhail Romm Written by: Mikhail Romm, Maya Turovskaya, Yuri Khanyutin Director of photography: Herman Lavrov Music: Alemdar Karamanov Narrator Mikhail Romm
