Your sentence “It just makes us more diverse.” caught my attention. Diversity is the name of the game in these kinds of conversations. I believe that cultural exchanges give opportunities to think outside the box and to explore our true “humanness” Recognizing our social similarities and differences with the use of language can lead us to also recognize the similarities and differences of our human nature. This is only possible if challenged to look through a different lense.
Oh la la! Oui oui :)
