   INSERT INTO "Dictionary" VALUES('-en-en','English - English OED_ed3','true',13379315,'','true');

   Replace the red bit with your choice of short helpful description (or nothing if you prefer)
   Replace the blue bit with the exact size in bytes of your dicthtml-en-en.zip file.
3. See attached screenshot. To insert the entry for the new dictionary into the Dictionary table
   • Copy your prepared SQL insert command into the top box (higher yellow highlight
   • Run the query (see red circle) via Execute > Execute SQL or [F9]
   • Once run, double-click the Dictionary table (lower yellow highlight) to see its contents. Your new entry should be visible (blue asterisk)
   • Exit SQLiteSpy.
4. Do a full power off/on cycle to get the new dictionary fully recognised by the Kobo.

Thanks for the trick. It works for my Kobo Aura when I add a custom en-en dictionary. Unfortunately it does not work when I add a "-en-vi". It may be due to Vietnamese (vi) is still not supported by Kobo device.
