A small script used to parse the lookups from the built-in Kindle database and create JSON data that can be used to create flashcards programatically.

You can find the Kindle's built in lookup database sqllite3 file by plugging your kindle into a PC and searching for "vocab.db".

Currently only supports Japanese books/lookups into English definitions.

Output includes:

  • Word
  • Reading (in hirigana)
  • Definition (in English)
  • Part of Speech
  • Sample Usage (context around the looked-up word)

The output is provided in "kindle_data.json" when the program finishes.

The definition/part of speech/reading data are courtesy of Jisho.org
