Are you, perhaps, confusing 2 different types of dictionary?
Hyphenation dictionaries are buried deep in the firmware, so copying to your Kobo is most easily done using kobopatch's
files: feature. Especially because every firmware update will overwrite your custom hyphenation dictionary if it's for one of the languages Kobo include in the firmware (English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Netherlands, Portuguese, Turkish)
However, your example above seems to be a custom Spanish-English translation dictionary. All word look-up dictionaries are easily accessible in the .kobo/custom-dict/ subdirectory on your Kobo. You can easily copy to this location via drag-drop from your local drive whilst you are USB-connected. Furthermore, any dicthtml-*.zip files you store here should not be affected by a firmware upgrade (or sync to Kobo servers) because Kobo are only interested in the default dictionaries stored in the .kobo/dict/ subdirectory. I'm not saying you mustn't use kobopatch's
files: feature to copy this type of dictionary, just that there isn't much to be gained from it.
