I just love how Korean sounds, with so many forms ending in 니다 (nida). It sounds sing-songy to me.

Italian. Easily. I love the sound of it. If only my school taught it. I find most languages pretty in some ways. French because of the beautiful words, but not the guttural sounds, Spanish because of the rolling r's but not the ungainly words. sweatdrop

What guttural sounds in french ??? That's arab.
Anyways

My updated top 5:

5-Esperanto Not for the sound but for the symbolism. Just think of how cool it would be if we all spoke just one language.
4- Swedish Because it just sounds great. And because even if it didn't, I just loooove Swede. Sweden rocks.
3-Spanish Because it's so sad (Juanes lyrics make me want to cry) and yet such a pretty and happy sound that puts a smile on your face
2-English Because it has such a great vocabulary that you can write master-pieces in this language. (Just think of Jane Austen and Dodie Smith)
1-FRENCH It's hard and complicated, that's what makes it pretty and sophisticated. There are just so many words it's impossible not to express your feelings if you master it. And when you do, you feel really proud because you had a heck of a time learniing it.

For some reason, I love the way Cantonese sounds. It has a pretty, exotic feel to it. biggrin

Scandinavian languages like Icelandic are my favourite.

I haven't heard too many languages, but I think that Turkish is prettiest of what I've heard. It sounds like a combination of Arabic and French, and those are both very pretty languages by themselves. <3

Japanese sounds pretty nice, from what I've heard of it. I suspect it's a lot easier to rhyme in Japanese than in English, too.

Posted: Wed Sep 13, 2006 5:42 pm

Japanese is easier to rhyme because they stole a lot of their words from Chinese but didn't care to make the distinctions between tones, so everything sounds the same. xD

Top 5:

5. Greek
4. Swahili (some of the words are absolutely BEAUTIFUL)
3. Japanese (it's got a nice rhythm)
2. Spanish (It just flows really nicely. ^_^)
1. Arabic (I don't know any, but I listen to a lot of songs in Arabic and I think I'm in love. xD)
