    Sure. I guess what I’m saying is that perception is fundamentally anglocentric.

    Obviously, by being retained as a liturgical language romance language speakers associate it as much to demonology as they do to… you know, your cousin getting married or a nerdy college student having obnoxious debates at the pub.

    I’m also saying that it sounds dumb to me. Just culturally it immediately flags somebody copying their homework or resorting to things that sound fancy to them when they’re not.
