I only have moderate experience in other languages, but I would suspect that there are other ways of achieving the same effect. My aunt is a professor of Spanish, and in her words English is adjective-heavy, while Spanish is verb-heavy which reduces the need for very specific adjectives. So in English you might have to add color to a boring verb to add emotion, but in Spanish you would just pick a better verb.
