Which foreign languages do you like the most and which ones are the most annoying?

[ericlee]

Firstly, Italian and French are excellent to listen to.

More of my favorites are Svenska, German, Russian and Polish, Chinese(which I will explain that I also find it annoying), Japanese, Khmer(Cambodian), Tsalagi(Cherokee).

Now, I'll start with annoying and I'll start with Chinese because I hear it everyday.

If it's spoken by the men, it sounds legit but for some reason when the ladies all get together, it's spoken too rapidly and loudly. It sounds like they're bout to start throwing down.

Stateside English. It annoys me just a tad to hear deep-deep southerners talk. It's kinda hard for me to converse with people down south because I usually finish their sentences for them because I talk somewhat at a more fast pace.

Hindi (India). I wouldn't say it's annoying but it's fun to listen to. It doesn't sound like they use vowels and it sounds kinda like using just b and l.

and I think I've just won the longest thread title award.

[miss soul fire]

I love French, German and Spanish the most. And also Italian.
Greek is fun too!! Hihihihi!!!:D

I love all languages! I wish I knew them all!!!

[icy manipulator]

i really love the russian and scandinavian accents. although swede's talking in english can sound really really bad. i dont know about any languages i can say i hate, but there's some accents i cant stand. Southern USA has to be at the top of the list for sure. And i cant stand Scottish/Welsh/Irish, especially Irish. My name's Partick Kieran, cant get much more irish than that and i still cant understand wtf the fuck the irish are saying half the time

More people need to find Finnish annoying, that way we might get rid of it.

hey man, Kimi Raikkonen may be pretty friggin hard to understand, but as long as he's around finland's sweet in my books. is there even a difference between the swedish and finnish accents? i cant imagine there being much considering you're right next door to each other and both relatively small countries

[TAL]

There's a big difference since Swedish (and the other Scandinavian languages) and Finnish don't come from the same place. Swedish is more western Europe and Finnish is more eastern.

[icy manipulator]

i see i see. i was gonna say it just seems weird coz people in perth sound exactly the same as ppl in brisbane and they're like 5000km's apart

[Randetica]

english is still my favorite language

mainly because of the word 'owned

[jabumbo]

i hate everything

[Randetica]

schnauze!

[ericlee]

I've learned to like Arabic after a little while but, it was hard to get used to at first. The whole "hoch, harch" in almost every word made me kinda want to dodge when they'd talk but, I got used to it.

Filipino, hmmm.. It's annoying when they speak their native language but I think it's the worse when they speak English.

[cookiepuss]

icelandic is really cool. no pun intended. (y)

I don't think there is any language I find particularly annoying.

[fucktopgirl]

french,spanish and italian are awesome,i love the uk and irish accent too!

[vickista]

german, russian, romanian, polish,greek, french, japanese, italian,hebrew,arabic.

annoying:
chinese,vietnamese,turkish,albanian,FYRMacedonian( i dno wat language the speak bcoz it a mix of varoius types or slavik slang, so yeah) and english.

[vickista]

same! and i love when germans, italians and french ppl try to speak english its soo cute, oh and the new york-an accent is kool too, and the southern accent. i love accents!:D

[Tone Capone]

I like the Deutsch the most.

Han'gul is the most annoying language I can think of... I am actually annoyed just thinking about it.

[Tone Capone]

To me that just sounds as if you hated being in Korea, and therefore hated the language. And how about that ol' Norfolk speak! That's some weird shit.

I don't hate the language, I find it annoying... but yes I did hate being there.
Yeah don't get me started on where I am now... uh oh... I think you just got me started. I don't really like the English accent unless it's coming from a woman with a nice voice... horrible huh? I think the Scottish and Irish accents are cool though... I don't really have an opinion on the Welsh accent.

ps. did I mention that Han'gul annoys me?

[Randetica]

there are some germans who talk in such an annoying way that i just want to kill them, way too fast and hyped and using stupid ass words all the time
i think most germans dislike them too cause you never see them on german tv

[voltanapricot]

i love the uk and irish accent too!
English, Welsh, Scottish or Nothern Irish accent?

I really like Thai, Thai people constantly sound annoyed when they speak! I also like it as a language written down, very pretty. I think some German dialects sound nice, too.

Some accents annoy me, but all languages interest me.

[GetYourWarOn]

australian.

[ericlee]

Annoying?

This language.

you taint!! I was going to say something similar.

[P of R]

Deutsch! (y)

[Lex Diamonds]

Ja, Deutsch ist ganz gut finde ich.

Italian always sounds sexual. I would love to fuck a hot Italian girl cuz it would sound so hot when she was screaming for mercy. :D (y)

[abcdefz]

More of my favorites are Svenska, German, Russian and Polish....



This thread makes me think of Jamie Lee Curtis writhing in ecstasy on a bed.

[Cooky Puss]

I'm sort of in love with englishnessss. It's a mental disorder that started when I was still a wee toddler.
I like the sound of swedish and icelandic too, but I can't really understand it much.

And the most annoying thing is chinese. Specially chinese girls gossipping. omg, the squeaks they produce!

[ericlee]

Heh, yeah that's exactly what I mentioned.

When the wife tells me that she's having her friends over it's usually me saying, "lao po(wifey), I'm going for a walk".

But yet, she feels the same way when my buddies and I would converse over a few drinks and we'd get rowdy and loud so, we're both equal.

When we both are alone and teach each other different phrases, it's quite pleasant.

[alexandra]

i've noticed how danes can understand swedes, but rarely vice versa. a drunk swede makes more sense than a dane, imo. sometimes i even find it hard to understand what people in the south of sweden are saying, because they live too close to denmark, hahaha. norwegians sound gay. gay as in happy. a depressed norwegian still sounds happy in some way. finnish is cool. the australian accent too. and i also like russian, hebrew and dutch.

[Otis Driftwood]

Dislike: Austrian (don't speak with your nose)
Italian (too many words with "gli" )
French (excludin Cajun of course)
Cantonese
Inuit
anything without a dialect

Like: Japanese (sharp and precise)
Urdu (afaik same here)
Australian
Irish
Danish

[Lyman Zerga]

we speak with our noses? wtf?

[Otis Driftwood]

Aaah, geehns, schauuuns...

[Calimero jr.]

I like Spanish and Finnish, which is really funny to listen to :)

I don't like hearing people from Holland, sorry but it's really harsh and even more painful to listen to than swiss-german (n)

[Lyman Zerga]

Aaah, geehns, schauuuns...

hahaha (y)
only the people in vienna talk like that
i wish i did
but im only vienna wannabe trash

[b-grrrlie]

I always prick up my ears when I hear Scottish or Irish.
Also I'm a fan of Dutch and Spanish and I really really really don't like Danish. In Finland we say they talk with hot porrigde in their mouth.

[Brettly]

I think we should all grunt and pee in snow to communicate
Languages piss me off

[alexandra]

In Finland we say they talk with hot porrigde in their mouth.
or a hot potato. :p

i'm not gonna lie; we always make fun of danes in school (and sometimes even at home) when we get potatoes for lunch. we put them in our mouths, say the words Roskilde, Aqua or Legoland in some sentences, and laugh our asses off.

[Leonie]

Spanish and my own language, dutch, me gusta
Spanish is pretty simple to learn and it sounds strong but beatiful (think german for strong and french for beautiful;) )
I think a lot of y'all dont really hear a difference between german and dutch, but there really is.. i like dutch more, it's not as harsh as german and i just like the sound of it, but maybe i just like it that much because i know it the best.
I can't think of a language i don't like really.. every language is nice in a way. I also like russian and swedish, it has a funny sound:rolleyes:

[burbboi]

Spanish sort of irritates me at times. A conversation between two people might sound all aggressive and heated when in actuality, one person might be politely asking for someone to 'pass the butter'.

Australian accents drive me wild (in a good way). A lady in the caf at work is an aussie and it's sexy as heck.
