Gorth Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 ...Some saz even, that we're from Atlantis...or even Mars :D Finland ? Whats the deal with that anyway. Do the Finns not know where they came from either ? “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

roshan Posted February 17, 2006 Author Share Posted February 17, 2006 Ive found that german is actually quite soft. Even english spoken with a german accent sounds quite soft. On the other hand I find languages like spanish and italian to be very hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astr0creep Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 Before saying anything about the expressive range of the pure *sound* of the German language, please check the vocal music of: Schubert, Brahms, Berg, Wollf, Schoenberg, *WAGNER*, R.Strauss, J.S. BACH (the cantatas), Mahler et al. "Spoken German and Russian always sounds like the speaker is angry." Now come on: I suspect whether your idea of the sound of German is that of some vociferating Nazi animal. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I was, of course, being humourous, something you Germans apparently don't understand (again, being humorous). Some of my best friends are German and I really do love the language. I find it mostly soft and melodious like you said and makes the tongue do lots of graceful accrobatics in the mouth when spoken. So yeah, I was kidding. http://entertainmentandbeyond.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walsingham Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 The only whole phrase I know in German, I can't write, but it is to answer the question "What are you doing?" To which I reply. "First I'm going to have a little drink, and then later - perhaps - I will eat one of my junior officers." Always handy. "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe. RIP Hades/Sand/etc. Here's hoping your next alt has a harp.

The only "born in Germany" Germans that I've met were some of the funniest people I've ever hung out with. It was perhaps a more straight faced humor than we get in the states, but they were hysterical. My blood!

@\NightandtheShape/@ Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 As for beautiful languages I like Swedish and Norwegian as I find them very musical. I also like the Italian and english with a scottish accent is awesome. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> you should hear estonian man.... That is a very musical language, but hey the singing nation and all that.
