There’s no shame in admitting you won’t learn a second language because you don’t have time or don’t want to.

Now calling French “some backwater dump of a language” when it has had such an immense cultural impact worldwide (including in the “most popular language”) just sounds silly.

Also, it’s okay to learn one of these “little languages” for fun. Not everything in life needs to be practical and/or min-mixed for ultimate efficiency.
