I'm pretty sure that something is broken in your LibreOffice user profile.
[1]

You might try to re-synchronize the 'bundled dictionaries':

- Close LibreOffice (+ Quickstarter, if enabled)
- Go to '...\Documents and Settings\<user name>\Application
Data\LibreOffice\3\user\extensions\bundled'
- Rename the folder 'bundled' to (e.g.) 'bundled_old'
- Restart LibO.

A new folder 'bundled' will be created in the user profile.
All bundled dictionaries should be available.

Hope this helps...

Addendum:
(1) Checking the program folder 'extensions'
[Path: ...\Program_Files\LibreOffice 3.5\share\extensions]
- Folder 'dict-en' is available (with the file 'en_US.dic' [among others])?

(2) Your LibreOffice 3.5.2 installation: default or customized installation?

(3) Does the problem occur--right from start--with
- a renamed LibreOffice user profile
- another / a new user (OS level)?
