Well, I agree with ann's assertion made at the beginning of this thread.
Kindle is, indeed, a kluge.

Hi Ann!
I used to think that "malarkiface" was your made up word. Is it really in
the dictionary?
I just looked it up and neither WordWeb or WordWeb Online found that word.
It said:
Sorry, no dictionaries indexed in the selected category contain the word
malarkiface.
You might try using the wildcards * and ? to find the word you're looking
for. For example, use
mala*
to search for words beginning with mala, or *face to search for words ending
with face
