But Im not able to do it correctly... any help please it would be much appreciated.

Hi, thanks for your help

I have did the same thing but still not working, But I think that the language should be installed first in the NAServer.

many thanks

Try in this sample.

https://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/3/sandbox/sandbox.html?sample=widget_directions_basic

Update the code like this.

directions.startup();
// after startup()
directions.setDirectionsLanguage("fr");

This worked for me. I think that method has to be called after the startup() method.
