Well, it is just somewhat rude to go to some place and speak something that is not the dominant language. It would be like if I went to the french part of the forum and demanded that the people I dealt with spoke English. I'm on their turf, so gotta conform to their ways.
Also, it isn't helpful to mix languages, unless the words in question have had widespread adoption, because that can make what you're saying not very clear to those who speak only one of the languages used. You ask the average person, and they'd probably have no clue what a liseuse is.
