Most GUI are in french without problem, you must set your locale and sometime install language packages (for example for LibreOffice or Firefox). See (a bit outdated) http://diablotins.davenulle.org/index.php/Francophonie The handbook https://www.freebsd.org/doc/fr/books/handbook/using-localization.html (smae in english, I don't know if french version is up to date) https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/using-localization.html Here for Xfce I've just in my $/.xinitrc: export LC_ALL=fr_FR.ISO8859-15 export LANG=fr_FR.ISO8859-15 startxfce4 Anyway, most of the base system and the documentation is in english.
