Changing “Chapter” just for one chapter
I am writting my thesis, using the book class.
The manuscript is in English, but the first chapter (the introduction) is in French.
I would like to have "Chapitre" instead of "Chapter" written before the chapter title "Introduction" for this chapter, but to keep "Chapter" for the next ones.
I hope my request is clear

It is not necessary that renewcommand has to be put in the preamble.
documentclass{book}
usepackage{lipsum}
begin{document}
renewcommand{chaptername}{Chapitre}
chapter{Name of the first chapter}
lipsum[1-10]
renewcommand{chaptername}{Chapter}
chapter{This is another chapter}
lipsum[1-10]
end{document}

If the first chapter is going to be in French one should probably also loadbabelto get the hyphenation right. In particular if one usesbegin{otherlanguage}{french}...end{otherlanguage}the chapter string is automatically translated.

@moewe I think you should write your own answer for that. It is a completely new approach.
