I think is good if they can make up words in the language (whether it is French, English, Latin, Japanese, or something else) that they do not already have it, but only if they do not force everyone to use it. It should be by your choice only.
(Even many words in English is French. You can also write in English without French words, but that also should be only if you choose to do; they shouldn't make everyone to do so even if they do not want to do. And in French, if you want to write only French words, or also English and others, it is only if you choose to do so and they shouldn't make you to do so if you do not want to do.)
If the government wants to use French words even if they are not that common, then they can use the words that they want to use. They even look to see if there are already French words, so that is good, compared with not doing so. But, they should not force everyone else to do even against their choice.
- telesilla 4y agoIt sounds like you are interested in Poul Anderson's "Ander-Saxon" english text that uses no borrowed words: French, Latin or Greek for example. Very strange but readable and really makes it clear how modern English is a melange of languages. https://anglish.fandom.com/wiki/Uncleftish_Beholding https://anglish.fandom.com/wiki/Uncleftish_Beholding For most of its being, mankind did not know what things are made of, but could only guess.
