>>
Dutch by far.
>>
Ugliest: Chechen. Listen to that shit.

Accept it, your language is shit-tier, just like your irrelevant, soon-to-be-underwater country.

On the bright side, it doesn't look like we'll have to listen to your chthonic tones for much longer. And the Afrikaans meme-nogs will all kill each other. All's well that ends well, really.

>>60461895
Envious of our higher standards of living, of the beauty of our people, of our cheaper and better education?
>>
>>60461948
The same way England managed to end bottom of a group which included Costa Rica.
>>
>>60462010
>higher standards of living
It's a shithole, stop shilling for your tourism department, it's literally Birmingham-tier.
>beauty of our people
Your people are, on average, as ugly, if not uglier than the bottom of the barrel ugly bastards we have here. And they're all freaky giants.
>cheaper and better education
I've literally never heard of a single university from your country, it doesn't matter how cheap or expensive your education is if no one in the world gives a shit about your small-time universities. You may as well go and study in a third-world country.

Your opinion doesn't matter though, we're much better than the UK if you look at HDI (and most other objective measures).
>Your people are, on average, as ugly, if not uglier than the bottom of the barrel ugly bastards
Utterly false, you people are renowned for your disgusting looks.
>And they're all freaky giants.
A manlet way of saying "And you're all beautiful tall creatures".
>I've literally never heard of a single university from your country, it doesn't matter how cheap or expensive your education is if no one in the world gives a shit about your small-time universities. You may as well go and study in a third-world country.
Your joke of a country has two or three universities that are good, and the rest is absolutely shit and the tuition fees and cost of living is through the roof. Our universities are affordable and good.

Face it, the UK is an irredeemable shithole.

Ithkuil is the ultimate red pill.

Ugliest: Ithkuil if spoken in correctly

Let me show you

Poor Ithkuil - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ss63kbPuMLI

Decent Ithkuil - http://ithkuil.net/sound_files/duchamp.mp3

God-tier Ithkuil - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3uLzdTndP34

Why have you not learnt Ithkuil yet /int/?

>N-nrixhalöxtort'rr eloertkha tu!

-I am happy to have learnt Ithkuil with ease!
>>
>>60462287
No, m8.

You could lie all you want, all day long, and even if we lived in some parallel universe where everything was opposite, and all those accusations were—by some miracle—true, this country would still be infinitely better than the Netherlands. If not for the sole fact that it will still be here when the polar ice caps melt in a couple of decades time. You and your family are literally going to be refugees, and it's going to happen in your lifetime. That's got to be worrying.
>>
The ugliest languages to my ear:
>All non-Semetic Middle Eastern languages
>All languages of India
>Cantonese
>Rioplatense Spanish
>Xhosa
The prettiest languages to my ear:
>Russian
>Mexican and Castilian Spanish
>English
>High German

>>60462430
The UK has more floods than the Netherlands, mostly because your incompetent mongrel race is unable to protect yourselves from the sea. Meanwhile our country is one of the most secure one because our civil engineers are world-renowned and extremely competent.

Don't worry, when those polar caps melt we'll be the ones offering our help to West Pakistan, your beloved island.

>>60462329
I speak Polish which has even less speakers. It feels fine to speak an irrelevant language. I don't see why it would matter, as long as I personally have a use for it.
>>
>Ugliest
Any form of Chinese
Any of the tonal Asian languages

>Personal favorites
English
Japanese
High German
Swedish
Classical Latin

I'm starting to like Dutch too. Been messing around with it on Duolingo

They're right, though. Dutch is one really repulsive language.
>>
>>60460607
Honestly Arabic for me, the writing is cool looking and it can be very nice in songs but damn in everyday life it's absolute garbage mordor tier, hearing people speaking that in the street always disgust me even if they aren't acting like dindus

Prettiest:

It isn't that bad. Anyone who names it among the worst is simply ignorant of other languages.
>>
>>60461610
I actually watch some dutch movie about some dutch general during the 17th century, cant remember his name though.

Anyway, I thought dutch sounded pretty good. And whats funny about it is that some words are identical to Swedish sometimes, there was some sentence with 3 words in a row that were identical to Swedish. Sounded so weird.
>>
>>60464548
It was Michiel de Ruyter

Good movie
>>
>>60464622
He was an admiral, not a general

Yeah, have the same with Scandi languages

kek, I hate Finland and Finnish is ugly as fuck so you shouldnt run your mouth dumb Pekka.

>>60462644
The UK has more floods because they don't have an extensive system like the Dutch and they built their settlements in hollows to escape the wind.
>>
>>60462428
Do you actually speak Ithkuil? How long did it take for you to learn?

nah
Chinese is by no measure a beautiful sounding language, but Vietnamese is by far the most incomprehensible mess of sounds I've ever come across. At least with Chinese I can figure out where one word ends and another begins.
>>
>>60465540
Our language inspired Elvish. Your opinion is irrelevant, Neederlandman.

And your genes inspired Finnish heritage diseases. Who gives a fuck, your language still sounds awful.

Xth for Vietnamese is the worst sounding language of all time

Nice evasion tactics, lowland weednigger. Like I said, your opinion is irrelevant; Dutch is universally acknowledged as one of the most repugnant languages on the face of this Earth.

I think I've upset you somewhat. My apologies.

I forgot that your language is the only thing that makes your otherwise utterly boring and ordinary country somewhat unique.

You should do something more productive instead of projecting like tearing down some of those dams. You'd speed up the inevitable.

Russian is worst by far, it just sounds like faggot version of my language

It's all just high-pitched bydlo "cyka blyat" rantings and ravings, anyway. I bet there's some vowel deviation at most.
>>
>>60465626
Vietnamese and Cantonese have like 8 tones.

Madarin has 3-4.

If there's a complex language that's indecipherable to even the best linguists, it's Vietnamese/Cantonese.

>>60461021

i thought non-slavic speakers can't see the difference between slavic languages

Korean sounds like Chinese and is derived from ancient forms of it.

>>60460607
based welsh saying it as it is.
>>
>>60466368
To you maybe there is not, to slavic people there is.

I can understand all of Czech
Polish is understandable to some degree but it has shitton of sz cz sh sounds
Southern slav languages sound to me like i should understand but i dont
Russian and other eastern variants have very different accent and stress on words

>>60466406
They can not
>>
>>60466421
Korean is a language isolate or at best very distantly related to Japanese
