I was called a small turd in Italian today.

It sounded so nice.

There has got to be a backstory to that.  :lol:

I like Japanese, British English, and find Hindi extremely funny to listen to.
I love French when spoken by women, but hate it when spoken by men.
Spanish is spoken usually way too fast to appreciate the language.
I loathe Irish English, Arabic, Mandarin chinese. Dutch is a big messy mix of english and german.

French is fine as long as it's being spoken by women.

Men...not so much.

Japanese and most Turkic languages are awesome.

And men sound lovely when we speak French :angry:

I gotta say I agree with MiM and Pedrito - French sounds much better spoken by women.

Et tu Marty :weep:

Even when that man is calling on the people to seize the powder in La Bastille? What about then?

Shockingly, women seem to prefer it when men speak French.

Fine, calling on fellow citizens to nurture the soil with the blood of tyrants is a properly manly use of French. :P

French guys can be admittedly quite hot. Many of them are very boyish/twinky.
