=============================================
Bulgarian - English dictionary in mobi format
=============================================

Introduction
============

This is a set of tools that can be used to to build a
Bulgarian to English dictionary in mobi format. It is
using the data file from BGOffice as a base. Result has
been tested successfully on Kindle.

Integration with Kindle is working correctly for words
as the different forms of the words have been extracted
from wiktionary content.

2 and tools are GNU Library General Public License version 2
or (at your option) any later version.

Download

could be use on a Kindle, I decided to build one using freely
available resources.
