A simple Anki add-on which imports words from Kindle's Vocabulary Builder. It translates words to chosen language using Google Translate (through TextBlob library).
Note: Google Translate can improve its anti-abuse mechanisms in any moment, making this add-on useless. Sorry for that.
Extract files to ~/Anki/addons and restart Anki or go to https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1621749993 and follow instructions in Download section.

Go to Tools -> kind2anki
-
In a "kind2anki" window:
- choose a deck to which you wish add words (you can create new one)
- specify behaviour in case of duplicates
- check "Include usage example" if you want to have a sentence with the word included in your flashcard
- uncheck "Translate words" if you wish to import words without translating them
- specify target language. You can select from a list or enter appropriate code (you can check language codes here: http://www.transltr.org/api/getlanguagesfortranslate)
- change the number of days in "Import words not older than..." if you wish. The default numer is the number of days since last run of the add-on.

Click Import

Select a vocab.db file from your Kindle. In Linux, it should be in /media/username/Kindle/system/vocabulary. In Windows, find a letter assigned to your Kindle and enter system\vocabulary after it manually in the address bar (system folder is not visible), e.g. D:\system\vocabulary
-
Click Open and wait. Translating words can take several minutes (so be patient and don't restart Anki).
-
When importing is completed, summary will appear. That's all!
(sorry for outdated screenshots)
This add-on uses Google Translate as a translating engine. Some translations will be unsatisfactory and you will have to manually correct them.
