Is there a way to select the English dictionary that gets used when in the "Reading" panel and doing a Bible Word Study?  I.e. When you do the following.

- Highlight a word

- Select "Info"

- Select "Bible Word Study"

    I don't think there is a preferred dictionary setting in Logos at the moment, but not a bad idea...

    "And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free", John 8:32.
    "你們必定認識真理,真理必定使你們自由", 約翰福音 8:3.

    The dictionary is based on your prioritization.

    Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

    I don't believe this is true on the mobile platforms unfortunately

    Thanks to everyone for your replies.  I know how to set up the PC version of Logos to use the desired English dictionary, but wasn't able to find a way on the android platform.  Even so, I thought maybe there was a setting I had overlooked or a process I wasn't aware of.

    Looks like it's not an android option... at least, not yet.  [8-|]

    Well... I don't know what triggered it, but as of this morning, the english dictionary I was wanting to use is suddenly the one being used.

    The dictionary previously being used was Merriam-Webster's, even though it was not downloaded to my tablet.  The dictionary I wanted to use was the Concise Oxford which I had downloaded and marked as a favorite, but Logos always used Merriam-Webster's.  This morning, I was pleasantly surprised to see the Concise Oxford used.  Wish I knew how/why!
