I have French and English dictionaries as add-ons to Firefox. I used to be able to right click to select the language I wanted to use as the desired spell checker. That seems no longer to be working in Firefox 78.0.2 (64-bit). How can I get this feature to work again?

What Firefox locale do you use ?

Is this about dictionaries you installed or also about a builtin dictionary like en-US if you use this locale ?

Dictionaries you installed show show under "Options/Preferences -> Dictionaries".

It is possible that you switched to another profile or used the refresh feature in Firefox.
