I worked with a woman whose mother spoke almost no english, only Arabic. She sat next to me and when she would talk on the phone with her mother, it was mostly Arabic with some English words thrown in there and what sounded like her asking her mother “what’s the word for…”. It was neat to listen to. :)

It’s the language of love (which transcends boundaries to bring people closer, in all its guises)
