for the aesthetic

As a french speaker i can attest to this

Damn true. French language looks a lot like musique for us. (i'm french, you guessed it, have a cookie). French language is having trouble finding that word so you made up another one from the latine roots you know, and (maybe not) everyone understand the word that you just made out. It's like building a well-designed skyscraper with old materials.

Someone once said (don't remember who) that "there might be a dozen of people in the world that perfectly speaks latin, and perhaps six people that perfectly speak french. " French language is like the french woman, proud, so beautiful, bold, noble, wise and crazy at the same time. She knows who she is and you have to train yourself how to behave with her.
