I know a lot of people go with French, it’s supposedly the language of romance etc. but it’s never done anything for me. German, on the other hand, drives me crazy! Something about hearing German just does it for me, I don’t know what it is.

What about you, what would you say is the sexiest sounding language?

    Way back when I was learning German the hard way (lovingly forced immersion via friends while visiting Frankfurt), I noticed that the suffix “-tzoig” seemed to make many compound words (initially, from “foitzoig” = “lighter” = “fire thing”). In my excitement to apply this theory to many other words, I also learned that “schlampetzoig” is less funny than it is rude. 🥹 🤷🏼‍♂️
