I am a native speaker. And I find German to be a very ugly language. Pronounciation wise. Compared to French or English. It sounds like someone is constantly having a quarrel with you.
- chilldsgn 1y agoI feel the same about Afrikaans, ugly and harsh as hell :D
- pixelpoet 1y agoI speak both and to me Dutch is the super harsh spitty one, compared to German and Afrikaans it's not even close!
- otikik 1y agoWeaknesses can become strengths. Sometimes you want to have a quarrel. When French people quarrel they must rely on changes on pitch, cadence and volume because otherwise it sounds like they are ordering baguettes at the boulanger.

- zelphirkalt 1y agoGerman has harsh sound. But in terms of quarrelling, I find that Korean sounds like someone is complaining all the time. But then again I have never learned Korean, so my impression would surely change.

- odiroot 1y agoThere's this fun video from Easy German, where native speakers (Austrians in this case) express their feeling of uneasiness when flirting in German. As in, the German language not being the sexiest. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hEx0edmLdLo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hEx0edmLdLo
