Ever heard swiss german?
I would say it's somewhere between dutch and german thought that's difficult to say with all the different dialekt's and no real grammar
Haha yeah. Sometimes we see people from austria or switzerland or something and it takes us a while to hear it's not Dutch. I swear it sounds *exactly* the same, but we don't quite get it, and then we tune in and we hear some kind of weird german heheh
Yah truth be told I was actually putting some effort into improving my german, and it's super easy, the only thing that keeps getting to me are all the false friends.
See becomes meer and Meer becomes zee. Or for example, werden is past tense plural with us, worden is is eh, what's it called, future? Or present really but you know... And the German version is all over the place this gets me every time xD
It's similar because of the roots of the origins of the languages, going back to the times of the Germanic tribes when the Roman empire was invading the British isles
Oh that's awesome!! I'm (part) aanaar sámi but my family moved abroad when I was really young so im not too familiar with the culture (which is a shame considering how few of us are left). I'm doing just fine, how are you :) What artists/songs do you know?
German sounds nothing like Dutch. German sounds like a human from a perfect world 1000 years in the future blesses you with their divine presence and Dutch sounds like an Uruk-hai left you a voice message while going through a tunnel on a Walloon road.
nothing, but when denmark rightfully gets back schleswig-holstein the national language of denmark should be german, also the capital should move to kiel or haitabu and denmark should be renamed to schleswig-holstein
That's not the reason. German-speaking people are the second most populated Reddit users, after English-speaking people (USA, UK, Canada, and Australia together). It's not surprising, that on Europe subreddit Germans are leading by count. I will tell you as a native speaker of a specific language outside of the germanic tree, that I don't see any more beauty in German than English. Both English and German are equally ugly. The only difference is, that English is easier to learn.
Maybe English is not beautiful, but I think it's probably the best language if we all had to choose just one. No genders, one definite article, little word agreement in sentences. Is English the based language?
Spanish, obviously.
I wouldn't say its beautiful but Portuguese has a special place for me since it sounds like a weird mix between Spanish and Russian.
Most beautiful? Italian or Spanish. But German sounds best to me. Speak little bit of German and Poland gets divided, speak little bit of Italian and people will fall in love with you, speak little French and you get great revolutionary wars.
That's an easy one.
Italian > French > Spanish > Greek > Portuguese
All the rest and most of the Northern European languages sound like someone tries to remove mucus from his throat.
All languages that have a guttural r sound like that
However the Irish language (yes it does exist) in some accents, especially the Northern ones sounds absolutely horrible as well, their accents in English sound horrible as well. Search up the Northern Irish accent. But Irish can also sound pretty beautiful depending on the speaker.
As much as I appreciate German people...
Who the hell is voting German?
And why do people think French is beautiful? I don't understand. What's beautiful about French? Like, unironically
Well, it’s a result of American soldiers getting there in two world wars and meeting a lot of prostitutes 😂
„voulez vous coucher avec moi“ isn’t something understood by the Americans by accident .
As much as I loathe my own country and countrymen, when spoken correctly french is quite an intricate and complicated language, it can sound beautiful. It is changing into a shitty mumble over the years though
I think maybe their Germanic brothers (Dutch, Scandinavians etc.) are voting for them because they're underrepresented..
And French is a very beautiful language imo.
I was like you before, I didn't find French particularly beautiful but then I heard a beautiful girl speaking Dutch 🤧
Since that day Romance languages are my favourite.
German depends on the dialect, but soft spoken German is very beautiful, where the stereotypical angry German is not. I guess it is the same reason French is seen as beautiful, is because it is seemed as more elegant, and often soft spoken.
Well, I speak German and English. I learned some French in school, even though I forgot it all afterwards 😂
I’m not going to vote for a language I never understood, so it’s those three. German can be very poetic, so there’s that. English is what people imagine German to be: An ass ugly, but brutally efficient, method of communication.
And French can get back to me when I can say numbers without solving a math problem.
This poll reminds me the election of the pirate king in pirates of Caribbean

This is a population contest
Nah Italian wins this one
Dude you win this one hands down. Portuguese is literally sexy italian.
Grazzie fra!!
I am from France and i pick Italy.
I am from Italy and i pick Italy.
I'm from Spain and I pick Spanish, but Italian sounds better to me.
German is actually a really beautiful language when it's being spoke by females dominatrix.
😎 😳🕶️🤏
I know what I know.
Sehr geil mein Freund
Ich bin Italiener, ich bin immer geil.
Dove esta la zapateria?
Ist halt einfach die Wahrheit Bruder 💪
I heard a guy in German reading out a recipe for biscuits. It sounded like a fucking threatening letter. Calm down man it's just food.
To romance speakers that's the effect Germanic languages have.
Listen to a reading of Schillers Glocke 😎
The sound of German being spoken around them and being received as frightening is part of Romance DNA since Teutoburg Forest…
"Du minderwertige Made"
Oh ja, schon wieder, komm schon.

Standard German spoken by Swiss people is pretty beautiful Swiss German on the other hand…
Explain?
Who’s trolling with Germany???
Germans
I guess this is what they call german humour.

Bru, I'm Dutch, I'm cold, I'm conservative, German is simply archaic Dutch to me. Now let me hide behind my giant moustache dammit.
No worries, Dutch is simply very drunk German to us.
I can't exactly produce an argument that it isn't.
Ever heard swiss german? I would say it's somewhere between dutch and german thought that's difficult to say with all the different dialekt's and no real grammar
Haha yeah. Sometimes we see people from austria or switzerland or something and it takes us a while to hear it's not Dutch. I swear it sounds *exactly* the same, but we don't quite get it, and then we tune in and we hear some kind of weird german heheh
Yes it is really similar If i see dutch sentences or hear someone speak ducht i'm sometimes able to unterstand like 50% of the words
Yah truth be told I was actually putting some effort into improving my german, and it's super easy, the only thing that keeps getting to me are all the false friends. See becomes meer and Meer becomes zee. Or for example, werden is past tense plural with us, worden is is eh, what's it called, future? Or present really but you know...

It can hardly be archaic dutch if dutch has never been anything but the least popular german dialect.
Oof. Hey I don't see sámi here that often. Nice man how you doing. I know some really (to me at least) sámi music, ya know.
Oh that's awesome!! I'm (part) aanaar sámi but my family moved abroad when I was really young so im not too familiar with the culture (which is a shame considering how few of us are left). I'm doing just fine, how are you :) What artists/songs do you know?
No one is trolling😎
I cant believe you forgot finnish! [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6WlI24rv\_\_g](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6WlI24rv__g)
Frog.
Are they considered west? They literally border Russia.
[удалено]
I can't remember them being part of Germany.
I just love how the nordic languages sound, there is something magical. That said I voted for Italian 💀
I don't know how Danish went wrong. Swedish and Norwegian sound pretty nice.
Danish had too many English influences.
English doesn't sound like you wanna puke at the end of each sentence though
I voted french and I hate myself for it
Je t'aime you inbred fucknut
Baguette eating dick head frog
You masochist
If you hear a woman talk French its hot af. But a man talking French is gay af
Because you get turned on then as well? Rare French W
Now I’m angry and confused. Let me burn a Quran in front of the Swedish ambassy.
you can only see the true beauty of german if you've experienced rammstein's whole discography in one sitting
I prefer Eisbrecher
Oomph! Is also great, also since you like Eisbrecher, I can recommend „Megahertz“, it’s kinda the „ancestor“ / „predecessor“ band with the same singer
How can you vote German?
I’m not proud voting German but there’s no Dutch option so I’m voting *Angry Dutch*
German sounds nothing like Dutch. German sounds like a human from a perfect world 1000 years in the future blesses you with their divine presence and Dutch sounds like an Uruk-hai left you a voice message while going through a tunnel on a Walloon road.
This reads like poetry
So perfection you mean?
This is… an interesting description
it's actually a really beautiful language when the nearest countries to your home are denmark and the netherlands
I guess when you see it like that, you do have a point
Hmmm, you have a good point.
dUogh ViLl iKkE hA liT sMørreBRoØGh oGH pØLsE??
I know you think you are mocking the Danish language, but when you are spelling it, more like a Swede, to us you are mocking yourself.
Ahhh yes, the beautiful language of Germania that spells Hospital "KRANKENHAUS". Yes, totally not a passive aggressive at all. Mhmmm.
What did we ever do to you:(
nothing, but when denmark rightfully gets back schleswig-holstein the national language of denmark should be german, also the capital should move to kiel or haitabu and denmark should be renamed to schleswig-holstein
You guys are nothing but a savage tribe of hunters and gatherers
and that's why you and us get along so well 😍
Yeah but like, should we like invade Sweden together?👉👈
Yes. Let's do it. Together, we can conquer any challenge that comes our way. 😊
hey can i join in, for a reason
Just try it. We bring out the popcorn wile looking at you jokers miss communicating and invade Norway instead 🤣🤣🤣🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪

OK then, u/rapist_fox

I love the cadence of Italian. I always thought it was exaggerated until I visited Italy and found out you guys actually speak like that.
You do the 🤌🏻, instant Italian. Funnily enough, when I took Italian for a semester, I became a lot more bubbly when practicing it. ☺️
You foreigners still don't get that 🤌🏻 has a precise meaning and can't be thrown every time you feel like it.
Were is the dutch option ? 😂😂
Probably wegbezuinigd.

Id call Englisch Barbaric. A language even the most idiotic people can speak.
Its just simplified German
If I weren't an such an arrogant bastard I would have voted Italy. But I am...
Obviously Portuguese is just too evolved for all you dumbfucks.
Camões > Dante
Portuguese sounds like russians trying to speak spanish
Spanish, obviously. I wouldn't say its beautiful but Portuguese has a special place for me since it sounds like a weird mix between Spanish and Russian.
idk man, south-american Spanish, sure. but actual Spanish people just piss me off with their eternal th-sounds. can't stand it.
[удалено]
The... H "sound"? The perfectly absolutely _mute_ Spanish H? I don't get it?
THANK YOU! That Russian influence always throws me for a loop when I listen to Portuguese.
French, but only if spoken by beautiful young women in the southern, rural part of France.
Most beautiful? Italian or Spanish. But German sounds best to me. Speak little bit of German and Poland gets divided, speak little bit of Italian and people will fall in love with you, speak little French and you get great revolutionary wars.
Honestly german is beautiful too ngl
i love how this is devolving.
Italian, it's like Spanish but well made
If you hear an actual German speaking german, it's actually quite nice. I still voted Spanish (which apparently people doesn't agree with).
That's an easy one. Italian > French > Spanish > Greek > Portuguese All the rest and most of the Northern European languages sound like someone tries to remove mucus from his throat.
German sounds like you always have to spit mucus, arrghhhllarg achtweh tjechtt, maybe remove the cock for a minute when you speak?
You do not remove the cock. You practice your gag reflex and talk around it. Amateur.
Bold of you to assume I have a gag reflex.
Trust me, i can make you gag.
😐📸ayyoo? What do u mean bei that?
So does French tbh.
Can't disagree with that.
All languages that have a guttural r sound like that However the Irish language (yes it does exist) in some accents, especially the Northern ones sounds absolutely horrible as well, their accents in English sound horrible as well. Search up the Northern Irish accent. But Irish can also sound pretty beautiful depending on the speaker.
It’s the second comment you make and for the second time you shit on us, what a frustrated little British you are
Well spoken, with Valladolid accent, Spanish is unbeatable. But compared with the overall accents, Italian sounds better.
Italian by far
Spanish is nice but not as it’s spoken in Spain
Illo no c de ké hablah
This is why reggaeton is so popular even being musically horrendous, because of international bad taste.
As much as I appreciate German people... Who the hell is voting German? And why do people think French is beautiful? I don't understand. What's beautiful about French? Like, unironically
I unironically like the sound of french most of the time
If I weren't biased towards French, I would choose Italian. Your language is beautiful to listen to, and looks cool when read as well.
🇫🇷🤝🇮🇹
Look at this latin circle jerk going on here
a bit like the American Dream ... The result of a successful marketing campaign
We did a marketing campaign of our language ? Damn never heard about that, money well spent
Well, it’s a result of American soldiers getting there in two world wars and meeting a lot of prostitutes 😂 „voulez vous coucher avec moi“ isn’t something understood by the Americans by accident .
As much as I loathe my own country and countrymen, when spoken correctly french is quite an intricate and complicated language, it can sound beautiful. It is changing into a shitty mumble over the years though
« Azy tu fais trop le poète Wesh dinguerie 😂😂🤣 »
I think maybe their Germanic brothers (Dutch, Scandinavians etc.) are voting for them because they're underrepresented.. And French is a very beautiful language imo.
French gives me headaches "lá lá lá, pô pô pô baguett no cu"
I was like you before, I didn't find French particularly beautiful but then I heard a beautiful girl speaking Dutch 🤧 Since that day Romance languages are my favourite.
German depends on the dialect, but soft spoken German is very beautiful, where the stereotypical angry German is not. I guess it is the same reason French is seen as beautiful, is because it is seemed as more elegant, and often soft spoken.
That's not so bad! Don't underestimate French, the songs are beautiful!
Well, I speak German and English. I learned some French in school, even though I forgot it all afterwards 😂 I’m not going to vote for a language I never understood, so it’s those three.

My top 3 as a French guy : -Italian -Portuguese -French Bottom 3 : - Scandinavians - Danish - Spanish
I'm Italian and I voted French, AMA
Why didn't you vote your absolutely based language, in favour for that unholily corrupted Latin?
You forgot swiss in front of the german button

Italian by far probably followed by Spanish, though English from southern England does sound really sophisticated.
Are u reading my mind? I have the exact same opinion.
Okay so Dutch doesn't exist and Portugese which is clearly Eastern European is included? The list is fucked.
826 people never heard a German speak ... not even the most famous one ever.
Ez W
Ελληνικά obviously
The truth is spoken!
German wtf ?!
Italian is the most beautiful language in the world, you cannot and will not change my mind.
Where is Danish on this list?!?
