It's Greek to me :)
I tried
\lefthyphenmin=1
\righthyphenmin=1
and also
\lefthyphenmin1
\righthyphenmin1

<code>
\input luaotfload.sty
\font\test={file:cmunrm.otf} at 10 pt

\test
\uselanguage{french}
\input ../lccodes.tex
\lefthyphenmin1
\righthyphenmin1
\input sample2_fr.tex

\bye
</code>
and get the same hyphenation. Ans thanks for possible hyphenations :)

Here: lccodes.tex contains lccodes (as Mojca suggested but for European
languages), sample2_fr.tex contains \showhyphens{Médaille}.

So I missed something (plain TeX is unknown territory for me).
