I'm trying to add en_US, en_GB and Spanish dictionary to Sigil, I'd like to know where can I find tutorial showing how/where to add dictionaries to Sigil.

Sigil 1.2.1 in Linux (MX Linux 19.3)
path for hunspell_dictionaries: /home/Michael/.local/share/sigil-ebook/sigil/hunspell_dictionaries/
ps: I've found some sites saying that default dictionaries are already installed, but my installation doesn't have any (hunspell_dictionaries dir is empty).

questions:
1) what's a reliable site to download free hunspell_dictionaries?
2) which files should I download/copy to hunspell_dictionaries?
3) if I install dictionaries with different languages, will there be filename conflict (same filename for different languages?)
4) did I make mistake during install (for the default dictionaries not showing)?
