I downloaded two hyphenation dictionaries. The one for the Latin alphabet is titled "Serbo-Croatian" and when I change the metadata of the Latin epub from the Serbian language to Serbo-Croatian and run the Hyphenate This it works perfectly.
However, the Cyrillic dictionary is titled just Serbian and it downs work. The Cyrillic epubs, which I leave as being in the Serbian language in metadata, are never hyphenated. I tried using the OXT file, but it didn't produce any results. I should mention that no error is reported when I do the process, everything looks fine until I check the epub file and word is hyphenated.
While I can find many ebooks in both alphabets and thus chose the Latin one to transfer to my kobo, some books are available only in Cyrillic.
Any idea what could be the problem?

Given that you have a Kobo and you are trying to add soft-hyphens to ePub, it's not going to work properly. RMSDK which is used to read ePub on a Kobo doesn't handle this well.
You would be best linking to these dictionaries and posting the language code you use for each language and I may be able to build hyphenation dictionaries that can be used with your Kobo that should work instead of trying to use soft-hyphens that won't work.
