[xubuntu-users] dictionary and umlauts (vowel mutation)

hi list,

have downloaded a dictionary es-de from ding but have now the problem,
that all the vowel mutation (umlauts) are from windows

like thats here :
abolición {f} :: Abschaffung {f}
abominable {adj} :: scheußlich; widerlich

Looking wit the file-command I get a seemingly correct 
"es-de: UTF-8 Unicode text" - thats the output, if I look with the
command "file ..."

So a recode seems to be impossible.

Has anyone of you an idea, how I can get a correct output with the
umlauts (vowel mutation) especially, what I have to do here ?

For shure, I can do a correction by hand, but it is a really long list
(here 18.000 words)

I would like to thank you very much in advance if someone could help me
or have a tip on how to convert this file.

bye hans
