What you want can be done, but there is inbuilt facility to do this.

You appear to be using some flavor of Windows, so the procedure is:
Close all instances of OOo, including QuickStarter.
Find and make a backup of the dictionary folder, normally located in:
C:\Program Files\OpenOffice.org 2.3\share\dict\ooo
Open the "dictionary.lst" file in a plain text editor (eg. Notepad) and
comment out (#) or delete the lines referring to the dictionaries,
thesaurus and hyphenation languages you do not need. Save the
"dictionary.lst" file, then delete the referenced files from this folder

You might wish to keep any files in this folder which have the ".sxw"
suffix, so that your "Fonts" and "Dictionary" wizards remain functional.

Restart OOo and if your dictionary setup is as you want it, you can
delete the backup directory.

Hope this helps.
