Yes, Aziraphale's being funny butchering the poor French language, but did you really consider what it means?
He speaks every language in the world. He could decide at any moment that from now on his French is perfect and fluent. But he doesn't want to. Not just because he likes to do things as humans do.
But because it is something he did. Not a celestial or miraculous gift. It has nothing to do with he's being an angel. He chose to be imperfect, he, who's always so worried about what others think about him. He worked hard for his horrible French. It's his. His making. His hard labour, his prize. It's said French is the language of love. Knowing this Aziraphale worked really hard to learn love.
To express his love. To communicate his love. It's maybe imperfect, it's maybe ridiculous, but this is his way.
But Crowley understands. Understands, because for 250 years Aziraphale has been wittering on about the plume of his imaginary Tante.
For the last 250 years Aziraphale has been communicating his love to Crowley. Imperfect, stuttered, hard to understand. But his way.
Nice addition that he attended to Monsieur Rossignol's night class.

i think a lot of the discourse in iwtv wouldn't happen if people who didn't like Loustat's relationship stopped watching the Loustat's relationship show, as simple as that

Something interesting I've noticed about conversion stories is many people seem to have both a rebellious streak and a deep-seated, insatiable desire to learn everything.
One of my shul's well-respected members (who runs the hebrew/judaism class that will start soon) talked about how, when he lived in my town, he would sneak out of the house just to go to shul. That's what I'm doing now, and it's funny (I'm not sneaking out per se, but I am also not telling anybody I'm going to shul). There's an aspect of free-spiritedness that I notice in many converts, and it's fascinating to hear each of their stories. And you know the funniest part? They sound like my story.
