What languages do you speak other than English? Which languages are you learning currently or hope to learn later on? Do you plan on visiting the country of that language? Any languages that you find beautiful to hear and others that sound like nails on a chalkboard?

To start, I only speak one other language (Spanish), and have only been to Mexico a couple of times as far as practicing with natives. I intend on taking up Japanese when I graduate in May (I'd love to travel there in the next couple of years). Another language I hope to learn later in life is Italian, that is if Japanese doesn't take me a decade or so to learn.

English is the sole foreign language, I can somewhat cope with. I learned French back in school, but it is hardly enough to read the Le Monde, no way I could actively use it anymore, not in any elaborate way.

Ehm, and I speak of course German too


Personally I really love French girls talking French or even better German with a French accent....

I'm the same with French girls speaking English (don't tell SWMBO)

I speak poor French and even poorer Spanish. I used to know how to order a beer in a dozen languages but even that skill has failed me of late.

I agree, I love girls that speak other languages (the accent when they speak English is nice as well ). Seems to me that women like it when you talk to them in other languages, even if they don't know what you saying.

But tell me, does really anyone find it sexy when a girl is talking in English with a German accent to you???

emptypepsi

Haha, well I can't speak for others but a rather attractive girl went to High School with me and was an exchange student from Germany. Maybe the fact that I already found her attractive enchanced the accent? Hard to say

Do you find the American accent coming from women attractive? Though there are a few different accents throughout the states (southern, pacific northwest, new england, midwest) from region to region. I kind of like the Wisonsin accent myself, heh.

hehe, but I guess you dont think the same way, if a traditional Austrian speaks with a heavy accent in english.

If you want, a female Schwarzenegger....

Heart of Oak

Now you've made me go all quivvery

Hm, to be honest I dont know your local accents enough to be able to differentiate between the different corners of the US.

Not meant as an insult but somehow the American english in general does sound way less stylish than British English IMHO.

A girl speaking German with an American accent, well, it depends on the girl, but I dont think it will enhance the sexiness. Its more like a neutral thing.
