I have followed th Raster indications to install spanish dictionary and
it works :)

Note to Ubuntu/Debian users, the compatible dictionaries are installed
on /usr/share/dict/
if you dont find your lenguage there do

#apt-cache search wordlist|grep ^w|sort

to show avaiable lenguages

change wspanish for your lenguage 

#apt-get install wspanish

and 

then 
# scp /usr/share/dict/spanish
root at 192.168.0.202:/usr/lib/enlightenment/modules/illume/dicts/spanish.dic

Avoid the shorting part because this dictionaries are already shorted
and depending on the locales you will only messit
