I never understood why sometimes writters write words in other languages when it's clairement not necessary, fuck

but it is often necessary for clarity. "through" does not mean, 100% exactly, the same thing as "via". they do not have the same associations, and may cause the reader to draw incorrect conclusions. you say "via" because of its historical context.

truly the mark of the pleb is not understanding this, imagine thinking people smarter than you will ever be just use foreign phrases to sound fancy* instead of to elucidate

*already some of them do lmao but most don't come on

Yeah, i know that, I'm talking specifically about exemples when it's clearly unecessary. My first language isn't english, so maybe that's different for english speakers. Often we see people trying to be fancy using words in english that already have a native word with the exact same meaning. It's like doing this:
"I'm excited to eat those apples!"
"I'm excited to eat those pommes!"
Wtf it's literally the same thing
"Today i woke up really early."
"Today i woke up trop tôt."
Not complaining about neologisms, but few words are just really unecessary.
We don't need the word "neige" when we already have "snow/anything in your native language", it's just pretentious and show a weak writting skill, try-hard.
And of course it differs from specific uses and well-know phrases such "c'est la vie", "laissez-faire", "ego", "etc", "blasé", "wanderlust", "langue vs parole" and "derivatio"(linguistics)...
Also different from, exemple: when refering to a russian grandmother using "babushka", more exemples like: "latin@", "sensei", "baguette", so on...
