 * Hello,
 * First, you need to manually remove your French content. You can use the admin
   language switcher to filter your content in French to ease the process. Once 
   done, you can delete the French language and uninstall the plugin if you don’t
   need it.
   If you remove the content and plugin, all your French pages won’t exist
   anymore. So if someone uses a URL of an old French page, it won’t be found. This
   is exactly what the 404 code says. The page doesn’t exist. You can’t really avoid
   that. Some people prefer to redirect 404 pages to a specific page using the 301
   redirect. There is a plugin for this [https://wordpress.org/plugins/404-to-301/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/404-to-301/).
   However I never used it so I don’t know if it’s something that would help you.
