What’s your favorite language or accent to listen to beside your native tongue?

[Chazmatazz269]

There are stereotypes that suggest people who speak French or Spanish are inherently more attractive because of the language. I have to admit that i really enjoy certain accents. Not counting your native tongue, which languages or accents are particularly attractive or interesting to you?

[letuswaltzforthedead]

Mandarin is a language I really like, regardless of who speaks it. I'm not really sure why. As for accents, I've always found both the Cuban and Ukrainian accent attractive. tbh, most accents sound nice but sadly can't choose all. its just that those are the ones I like most.

[ODC2112]

premise: my mother tongue is Italian with Eastern Lombard accent, if I have to find a pleasant accent for Italian it can be Emilian.

If I have to hear English, I prefer the pronunciation of the reiceved pronunciation which is the English that we are taught in Italy, in addition to this I find it pleasant to light up Welsh.

[LikeALog]

Italian, Thai, Texas accent, English as spoken in England

[Chazmatazz269]

Do Texans have an accent distinct from other southern US accents?

[LikeALog]

Most definitely yes. There's the west Texas drawl and the east Texas twang. They are mostly heard in rural areas. In the big cities, it's almost like Midwest USA, no accent.

[Chazmatazz269]

Interesting

[menina]

I don't find people who speak my native tongue attractive. So I always prefer people who speak other languages. That being said my favorite language is Spanish and my favorite accent is Colombian.

[Chazmatazz269]

I absolutely gush over Sofia Vergara. I live the way she looks and sounds!

[menina]

I don't like her, but I get why you feel that way.

[Chazmatazz269]

Even with the Columbian accent? Is it her, or do you only like the accent in men?

[menina]

Yes, even with the accent. It's just her and it's not because she's a woman.

[Chazmatazz269]

Fair enough. To each their own.

[KostasKouvalis]

Georgian, it's so unique

Accent: Jamaican

[Chazmatazz269]

Oh, i forgot about Jamaican. That’s definitely a good one!

[Celeste951]

Italian is my favorite language but I’m gonna have to go with scottish accents- I could listen to one all day

[14JDPO]

Italian accents and language are my favorite... and make me swoon. ;)

[Jltakk]

I'm used to French and adore the language. I can say nothing, and it'll still impress people lol. Italian is my second favorite, followed by Japanese. Portuguese sounds ugly to me. It sounds an accident everytime I hear my friends or football players talk.

[Aurora1010]

Arabic, Portuguese, Japanese, Turkish for languages. Colombian, British, European Spanish for accents

[Aurora1010]

Russian too for both language and accent

[Chazmatazz269]

Hahaha! You might be too picky. Ell oh ell!

[Aurora1010]

Yeah I know I can be picky, but in this how?

[Chazmatazz269]

Hahaha! It was sarcasm. You posted more than anyone else and most people posted more than one even though i only asked for a “favorite”.
Definitely an overachiever! Ell oh ell!

[Aurora1010]

😅👍

[Guy13]

Thai because it is crazy tonal and mostly chaotic…How can something that looks this good sound like that 🙃

[Chazmatazz269]

I appreciate glottal stops more than most. Ell oh ell!

[Guy13]

"I just see... hear Pretty"!!!

[whereismyjohnny]

My favourite languages are Italian and Spanish. About accents, I really like the British accent.

[TrueConfection]

Italian might be my favorite language to listen to and a Spanish accent from a Spaniard is very sexy.

[Levin]

American English, which is like another language of itself really...

[Chazmatazz269]

It really is, and it’s been recognized as much for some time now. Beyond that, the regional slang borders on differing dialects sometimes especially where other languages have had strong influence.

[Levin]

For me it's more about the contrast between my sort of slightly stifling and uptight English accent, and the natural freeness and joy of the American. I've come to really appreciate it. Americans sound so loud and confident. And English people... don't.

[Chazmatazz269]

I imagine you have what i would call a “proper English” accent. I really like listening to “Cockney”. I luv movies like “Snatch” and “Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels”. Invariably i come away saying things i never normally say in a bad accent because i can’t do it well. Ell oh ell! I’m just fascinated with the language.

[Levin]

My accent is kind of weird. Sort of proper but also northern. Bit of a corruption really :)

[RavVid]

Well french is usually charming but Spanish can be harsh sounding. I do like the southern belle accent and the crystal cut British accent.

[Avicenna]

French, Japanese and Arabic

[Chazmatazz269]

I’ve been watching a lot of vids about Japan and its people on Utoob lately. The language and the accent when they speak English are both growing on me fast.

[FilmGuy93]

Indian and South African women's accents are like honey to my American ears.

[Chazmatazz269]

I have my GPS set to a female voice speaking English with an Indian accent. Not specifically by choice. It was just the best option of the lot. I do like it though.

[FilmGuy93]

Mmmh... yeah... especially when the woman's voice is low, slow and breathy.

[Chazmatazz269]

It’s a GPS, not a 900 number, weirdo. Ell oh ell!

[crossdressingrihno]

German, Russian, old English, old Norse and attic Greek

[SiberFox]

I'm a sucker for a proper Bri'ish accent, but I really do love the French accent.

[fonduegirl]

Fluent Hindi mixed with a bit of English with South Indian accent.

[dolemite89]

British and aussie girls accents make me weak in the knees 🤤

[siseñor]

Creole, punjabi and chinese

[Straight2thepoint]

Irish native tongue.

[Chazmatazz269]

I like English with an Irish tongue. Scottish too, to be honest.

[Blackcosmo]

My favourite language is Japanese.

[yucychan]

French and Spanish

[ZS007]

Spanish and British English

[Abchahaha]

British, Japanese and Chinese then Latino.

[bean2k21]

Romanian vampire accents

[Midgetmcwidget]

Danish 😍

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

Scottish, British, Australian

[ElementoP]

It makes them inherently more retarded

[linka_pat307]

[Wise4myage]

French, I love that accent.

[Babygirl_S]

British English.

[bean2k21]

ew they sold slaves

[Waldoe]

the language of "Love"... purrr...

[chokiee]

English and japanese

[LaffyTaffy777]

British or Australian

[Exterminatore]

Latin.

[Chazmatazz269]

Who do you know that speaks Latin?

[Exterminatore]

I’m learning myself. I often watch a guy on YouTube named Polymathy.

You can also hear spoken Latin in the Netflix series Barbarians.

Many traditional Catholic hymns were written in and sung in Latin. They are still sung today.

[Chazmatazz269]

I took 3 years of Latin in High Skool. Fourth year i would have learned to speak it. Seemed silly to me. I also didn’t end up pursuing a career in law, so….
Ell oh ell!

[Exterminatore]

I find it to be very difficult. Much more complicated than English.

I found I can understand much of what Italian speakers are saying.

[Chazmatazz269]

You’ll detect similarities among all the romance languages if you examine them closely. It’s not comprehensive though. Latin is a dead language so it hasn’t evolved the way modern languages have. But the fundamentals are still there.

[Exterminatore]

Yes. Vocabulary isn’t an issue. Grammar is. Lol

[crossdressingrihno]

Nice, the Luke bald American that speaks latin in Rome...

Yes. You must be familiar with him.
