little pleasures

Since I was 'kicked out' of realities of social life due to my sickness, accordingly, I wasn't able to deal with the languages (or is it just an excuse?). Namely, with Spanish and French. When I went to my Spanish class last week, I didn't have a clue what the people were talking about, BUT I was fascinated by the way my brain worked in 'picking up' the words that I knew from conversations. Almost the same thing happened with French. However, it was much more complicated because I take it at higher level, which is near to B.1 (Spanish is only approaching A.2).
The thing I wanted to say was that once I decided to write an assignment in Spanish (Mi famosa favorita), I started from the very beginning and installed a spanish keyboard on my computer. 
Then it started...all these gorgeous ¡exclamation! and ¿question marks?, ç, é, ê and è that I finally learnt to type, ñ and Ñ. Mamma mia. I never switch to any other language since then and greet my friends in Spanish. Why are the letters so beautiful and why there are no alternatives in English?

P.S. It is also a crazy fact that having never studied Danish but taken courses of German and learning English I found myself to be totally able to understand all the written things during my time in Copenhagen.
