Swahili has a nice ring to it. Arabic can, too, if you're not listening to crazies scream about how they're going to kill you (a shame that's how it's so often depicted in media over here).
I don't know if it counts as "least favorite", but to my ears, there has always been something incredibly goofy about the way Danish sounds. I'm not sure why; the same isn't true of Norwegian or Swedish (or English, come to think of it), but Danish is just... odd. No matter who's saying it or what they're saying.
Anything Masculine. The Germanic languages are pretty good with that. Least favorite, the Anything Feminine. LOL. Sorry I know how it sounds but I like the image of a big brute conquering is quarry. If it was okay to do so I'd be walking around half naked in woad paint with a spear and shield and my hair spiked up making war cries at 5 year olds. ROOAAAAARRRRRRR!!!
Probably Vietnamese. It sounds funny to me. *he said in the most non racist way possible*

Least favorite:German (it just sounds too harsh in my ears, like you're constantly trying to insult someone English would sound equally bad, if they hadn't borrowed so many words from Latin) Fave ones: Italian and Spanish
I thought the same thing at first. But if you turn the audio on, a lot of portuguese words are pronounced differently than you would think based on reading.
@Gisellelight It could change though, I watched some german series, I recently watched schindler's list again, the more I hear it the more I can get used to it :)
Aw you’re sweet! You have a point though when you say you’re getting used to it. It does take getting used to a hearing it. For someone who doesn’t hear a language often, it will sound unusual and that is normal.
