What languages are pleasing to your ears?

There are quite a few people here who are multilingual... what are some of your favourite sounding languages, or are there any languages you've always wanted to learn but never have?

I used to speak Zulu and Dutch relatively well when I was younger.. however lack of practice has made a novice out of me. (at best!) I'm getting better at Australian though... (and trust me, it is a completely different language from English!!!) wink

I've always loved Greek and Italian... and one fine day I'll get my booty! in gear and learn to speak them properly.. what about you... any languages that take your fancy?

Above all others, East African languages. They just sound like music.

I do like French, actually more a cutie with a French accent than the language itself. I speak a little.

Farsi sounds pretty cool.

I really dig guys who can speak a different language and play an instrument. Don't ask.

I love the way almost any language is spoken. Some off the top of my head are Japanese, Spanish, French, Italian, and Indonesian.

But I could sit for hours, just listening to a different language... it blows my mind... and I think it's so beautiful. I dig accents, too, esp British ones... and Scottish (right, Saxjedi? heart)
I mean, like, where is the sun?

My wife is half Italian, so I love the language. I know a little Italian and French so I like hearing those two. My parents are both Scottish (and that's got a whole different language all it's own) so I love to hear a Scots talk.

I speak a few languages aside from English ... like Irish (of course), Japanese, French, and a teeny bit of German. I love Japanese, it's a lovely language with a lot more "colour" than English in my opinion. I love the kansai-ben accent it's quite sweet (but don't tell my wife, she has a Tokyo accent).

Battier you should hear Spanish being spoken when making love. It will curl your toes and send mad feelings of sensations down to your...you know what!

What am I doing you are only 16!
