I'm learning Japanese because I love this language and it may be useful in my career. But I think I actually should study Korean right now, since I work on Korean webtoons and it would be great to be able to read the original version... But since I'm still a beginner in Japanese, I think it would be too much to study two languages... :(
J'apprends le japonais parce que j'aime trop cette langue et parce que ça pourrait m'être utile dans ma carrière plus tard. Mais en vrai je devrais surtout apprendre le coréen, comme je travaille sur des webtoons coréens et ce serait top que je puisse lire la version originale... Mais comme je suis encore débutante en japonais, je pense que ce serait trop d'apprendre deux langues en même temps... :(

文法:〜ておくれ(Please ~)
The て-form of a Verb and おくれ combine to make a polite request.
〜て + おくれ = 〜て + ください Please ~.
おくれ is a classical way of saying ください from the Edo period. It’s mostly seen in period films, or in the speech of older characters in literature. It’s seen very rarely in modern speech, although due to its literary nature, it may come up in the occasional song lyric or in the dialogue of an off-beat character with a particular speech pattern.
It originally comes from a shortened form of 〜ておくれなされませ. In spoken speech, it can be further shortened to 〜とくれ.
Although the two are very similar, it is much more polite than てくれ, which stems from the 命令形 rough command form of てくれる.

まっておくれ ジャンヌ!! ジャンヌ!! かあさんをすててしまうの!? ジャンヌ かえっておくれーっ!! Please wait, Jeanne!! Jeanne!! Are you just going to toss your mother aside!? Jeanne, please come back!!
(『ベルサイユのばら』The Rose of Versailles, vol. 1 by Ikeda Riyoko)

おふくろ〜 苦しいよ〜 水をおくれ〜 氷まくらの氷取り替えておくれ〜〜 あとヨシヨシしてくれよぉ〜〜 Mooooom… It hurts… Water, please…! Please change out the ice in my ice pillow…! And then please pat my head and say “there, there”…!
(『ハイスコアガール』Hi Score Girl, vol. 1 by Rensuke Oshikiri; perhaps because of his obsession with video games, Haruo uses this grammar excessively for requests)

代わりと言っちゃ なんだけど、ぜんしんタイツを やるよ!エンリョなくもらっておくれ!おつかれ In exchange, so to speak, I’ll give you these full-body tights! Please feel free to take them! (Good work)
(Muffy/フリル from Animal Crossing: New Horizons; it’s common in all sorts of requests from Sisterly/アネキ types in the game.)

とんちを利かせておくれ Please show us your wit [水曜日のカンパネラ - 一休さん]
