Still stuck with those Indoeuropean languages - why not branch out into one of the Finno-Ugric languages (although I believe DoctorBeaver would probably prefer you learnt Swahili [:)]).

Well, yes, they are both Romatic (or Romance) languages - i.e. they are both derived from Latin, the language of the Romans.
The reason why we think of romance to do with love stories was because in the 11th and 12th centuries, the troubadours of southern France wrote and sang a lot of love songs in Occitan/Provençal is a romance language (in many ways purer than French or Spanish, although the territory of Occitan covers parts of Italy, Provençal in France, and some of Spain, but the largest part is covered by Provençal).
Yes.. I really don't like this "Romantic" language stuff. [:o]

But it was you who started the French language thread [:)]
You could have started a German language thread - German is not a Romantic language (come to that, since English is a Germanic language, although with a lot of non-german influence, so English too is not a romantic language).

“Onques mes ne fu soupris
De nule amour, ne destroiz,
Mais or m'ont dou tot conquis
Ses sens et sa bone foi.
Cors a gent et cler le vis,
Blanches mains et longuez doiz,
Douz semblant et simple ris:
Bien est faite en touz endroiz.
Pou la voi…”
(Gontier de Soignies)Never was I so overcome
By any love, nor in distress,
But now I'm conquered totally
By her good sense and honesty.
Fair is her body, clear her face,
White her hands, and her fingers long.
Gentle bearing, tender smile:
Well-formed she is, yes, everywhere.
I rarely see her…
