Smile Top 5 languages you like the most

I decided to open this thread to see your preferences! You can also say why do you like the specified languages. I shall begin!

1. Arabic - i fell inlove with it 3 years ago, i simply adore this language.
2. German - my mothertongue is Roumanian, but i've always said that German is my mothertongue.
3. English - of course, one of the most beautiful languages
4. Spanish - it's easy to learn and has a nice pronounciation
5. French - i like hearing people talking in French

Default Good Idea !

1. Romanian (my mother language and my love )
2. French (the language of romantism)
3. Greek (the mother of civilisations and history)
4. Spanish (no reason yet)
5. German (I don't know it, I have no idea how it sounds but I love it when someone speaks it )

[only the languages I like ? anyway, I hate Latin but Italian and Hungarian the most, I would better learn Chinesse or Japonesse with their alphabet over 1000 characters , I guess they have that number...]

I don't like Latin either! I have studied it for 5 years in school, but i don't know to say a thing! It doesn't make any sense to me!

It would be so much better if we had the chance to learn languages that we really like! Don't you agree?

I don't know how many characters Chinese and Japonese have, but i think enough! Although they aren't really characters, but they seem more like all kind of signs! You have to be good at drawing in order to manage to write them down!

1) Greek (my mother tongue)
2) Bulgarian (beautiful language and amazing people)
3) Turkish (nice pronunciation)
4) Spanish (funny language)
5) Arabian (a great challenge)

P.S. I HATE and I will always HATE english cause it's a cheap language. Also cause of some votes Greek came second and English is the international language. Ah they stole the marbles of Parthenon and they don't give them back...

I like the pronounciation in Greek, maria! And of course, the music also! Could you write down the alphabet for me and the corresponding letter in English? Please!

It's practically weird to hate Latin and to like Italian. In my opinion Latin is more better to listen than Italian. Most of them scream, not speak. And their accents... And please not to remind that in their speech more than 40% are interjections.
You shouldn't forget from where the word "aristrocracy" born. I would name Greek and French true languages, aristrocratic ones.
All my respect for those who know Greek and Arabic. (5 mil. of words and writting from write to left...)
And I do agree with Maria's opinion in English language, american one. It's miserable, infected etc. Despite British which sound different, it's superior.

Girls (for Veronika too) don't be mad on this. One of the greatest Romanian philosophers Lucian Blaga said to a student that couldn't learn Greek : "Don't worry my friend, Greek isn't a language that can be spoken by all of us" (meaning : Greek language is made for art, philosphy, beauty, history and civilisation)

My Latin teacher repeated this to me after I failed an exam. I saw better the purpose...

Wow! Chill out igrec! It's not weird at all. Latin has nothing to do with Italian. Kidding! I mean they have a deeper connection, but acoustically or phonetically (I don't know which suits better) there's almost nothing sιmilar. Not to mention the fact that even Italians don't understand Latin. I guess you don't like the way they speak, their accent as you said etc, but that doesn't mean that the language itself is awful. That's the way you see it. How can you tell me that it's weird? It's like refering to 2 similar, but in a way different languages.
Maybe you shouldn't forget that I'm Greek! I know where the word aristocracy was born, like many many others, which all nations use. However, it doesn't mean that all these words and the ideas they express belong to us. Wouldn't that be weird?? I agree that Greek is an aristocratic language and not only this. Besides, I wrote that I like the language.
So, do you know Russian? Do you know anything about russian culture? Do you know the sound of the russian language? Don't tell me that there's nothing aristocratic!
To conclude, you don't have to underestimate other languages to prove that you are right. What exactly do you mean by saying "true languages"? I can't accept that.
PS: I think that you should fall for an Italian girl! Then Italian will sound to you as music!! Ciao (with Italian accent)!
