>C'est un jeudi, au commencement de février, un beau jeudi soir glacé, où le grand vent souffle. Il est trois heures et demie, quatre heures… Sur les haies, auprès des bourgs, les lessives sont étendues depuis midi et sèchent à la bourrasque. Dans chaque maison, le feu de la salle à manger fait luire tout un reposoir de joujoux vernis. Fatigué de jouer, l’enfant s’est assis auprès de sa mère et il lui fait raconter la journée de son mariage…
>Pour celui qui ne veut pas être heureux, il n’a qu’à monter dans son grenier et il entendra, jusqu’au soir, siffler et gémir les naufrages ; il n’a qu’à s’en aller dehors, sur la route, et le vent lui rabattra son foulard sur la bouche comme un chaud baiser soudain qui le fera pleurer. Mais pour celui qui aime le bonheur, il y a, au bord d’un chemin boueux, la maison des Sablonnières, où mon ami Meaulnes est rentré avec Yvonne de Galais, qui est sa femme depuis midi.

Yeah and I feel like French has just as many consonants and maybe even more vowels than English. Not that you should judge a language by the size of its phonological inventory.

Actually never mind, English has a shitton of vowels and diphthongs (the abundance of diphthongs is something I really don't like about how a lot of words in English sound, though)
