You can't. lookup-words invokes ispell in a way that cannot use your
usual dictionary. It needs a list of words instead. For the details,
read the man pages of Ispell the program (the `L' command in Ispell).
Just find somewhere a list of French words and put it in
/usr/dict/words; then the command will work.
