The Most Beautiful Language & "Kugelschreiber!"
Jun 07th 2009 23:53
Which language do you believe is the most beautiful? I found an interesting topic in What a strange expression! community.

I don't think there is the most beautiful language because all languages are equally beautiful. And the beauty is easily influenced by the subjects. But I would like to know what language sounds beautiful for you. In my opinion, any language sounds beautiful when it is spoken by girls. ^o^
The person who created this topic says that the Japanese language is one of the most beautiful languages and the German language sounds guttural. I don't know if Japanese sounds good or not, but I like Japanese poetry, both modern one and classic one. If you are interested in beautiful Japanese poetry, phrase, or words, I recommend you a book, "声に出して読みたい日本語（こえにだしてよみたいにほんご）". It makes us want to pronounce such Japanese. About the German language. It sounds very cool for me. I know this is a little bit silly, but I feel that I can defeat any enemy if I shout "Kugelschreiber! (a ballpoint pen/a Biro)". XD I wonder if Germany people call Kugelschreiber other name for short? I would like to know other cool words like Kugelschreiber to save the earth. Haha, I'm only joking. ^w^

hahaha Ai!! ^_^
this entry is very funny!! ^^
well, I agree totally with you. All languages are cool...!
but if I have to choose, personally, I will say that I love Japanese language... I would love to speak like you do ^^ and also I would love to read Kanji.. :(( unfortunately I can't read it, and on the internet I can't found a good guide. >.< I won't give up!! lol!
the second language I like its Portuguese..its so cheerful!! well, at least this is my impression!! ^^
German Language is a bit rough maybe, but that is their sound!! ^^
I love the word "wunderbar" (wonderful) ^^ haha...
Kugelschreiber is way too long for me, I can't even pronoince it!!! HAHA >__<

I didn't mention to Italian, but I like it very much. It sounds like a song. ^U^
I hope that you will find a good Kanji site on the Internet. If I find a good site for Kanji learning, I will tell you. ^ ^ As for me, I would love to know how the Kanjis are written and pronounced in Chinese and in Taiwanese.
Yeah, Portuguese sounds cheerful for me, too. And yes, I can't pronounce Kugelschreiber as well! I heard that it is クーゲルシュライバー in the way of Japanese writing. But I'm not sure if it can be understood by German people!
It is very interesting that there are a lot of different languages, isn't it? I love all the languages. ^ ^
what about ESPERANTO, can it be considered as language? what do you think? ^^
Esperanto? Humm. I don't think it is a perfect neutral language, but I think it is one of the languages because there are people who speak it. ^ ^
Japanese is really pretty~ :D It sounds soooo gentle and calming~ (not that I know a lot about it =.=)
I personally love Italian for its sexy rhythm~ :P
German does sound guttural..even a little barbaric...no offense whatsoever, but even the most simple phrase like "I want the milk" sounds threatening...=.= But it's very close to English in a lot of ways~

Hi. ^ ^ The Japanese language sounds gentle and calming? That's interesting!
I want to study Taiwanese, Italian or German if I had more free time. Because I'm interested in Kanji in other countries(Of course the origin is China, but I liked Taiwan when I visited there before. I would love to visit China, too!), Italy sounds so cheerful, and Germany sounds cool (It also sounds a little bit too strong, though.) and it is close to English as you said. Ah, I need more time! I want to study English, too! My English has not improved much. X-(
