Suppose now that I have installed LibO, I have my French interface and
help, and that I now want a Chinese spellcheck

There is no such thing as a chinese spell checker - the characters are
words already, so you'd need some kind of grammar-checking instead
(that can detect what characters/glyph belong to one "expression").

- how would I do that ?

For Chinese: you can't.

Where is the spellcheck dictionary ?

A spellchecking dictionary for Chinese (or Japanese) doesn't make sense.

Remember : we are talking about the Mac platform. If I activate the Mac
OS system Chinese language setting, my whole system will be in Chinese

LO/OOo on the Mac is able to use both the system's spellcheck
functionality, as well as hunspell - but then again, this only helps
when there are dictionaries available.

Dictionaries can be installed as extensions, just like with OOo - and
you'll find many dictionaries that are not included in the installer
at the extensions website.
