Download the dictionary file to the computer (it should be something like dict-XX-YY.mobi.zip).
Unzip it, you will have a dict-XX-YY.mobi file at the end.
Plug the Kindle to the computer with a USB cable.
Paste the dict-XX-YY.mobi file into the documents/dictionaries folder on the Kindle.
Safe eject the Kindle, and unplug the USB Cable.
Optionally, you may need to restart the Kindle.
