Their motto is, "We love language. And that shows." Yet in French they translate this as, "Les langues : notre amour toujours neuf" which, when translated literally, means "Languages: our love ever new." Was the motivation for using this particular phrase in French some French cultural aspect I don't know about?
I'm convinced that this is the case. It lies with the link between "love" and "new". It reminded of a phrase that went something like, "Everything I see, I see because I love." I can't seem to find its source on Google, but I did find it interesting.
