Summary

This quote implies that the meaning or comprehensibility of language in opera is inconsequential to the speaker. They assert that they don't mind which language is used as long as it is one they don't understand. This suggests that they appreciate opera primarily for its musical elements and see the language as secondary or even distracting, preferring to focus on the emotions and melodies carried by the singers' voices rather than the literal content of the lyrics.
