How goddamn beautiful French is.

Upon watching a shitty french video, I noticed the top highlighted comment: "C'est du viol auditif!!".

This apparently roughly translates to "It's ear rape!"

God damn. Even when talking about such unpleasant subjects such as rape, French is goddamn beautiful.

Eh. I still wish I'd taken Spanish instead.

Sure, if you like to speak by drowning in your own phlegm.

Chagen · 2011-06-19 18:01:54

As if the Germanic family's guttural sounds are any better.

I hate French, because it looks absolutely nothing like how it sounds. With Spanish, at least it's simple.

Looks weird to me.

Versailles

If you encountered that word for the very first time, how would you pronounce it?

Granted, Spanish has ll = y, but that's about it. Nearly everything is consistent.

Granted, Spanish has ll = y

They're actually different sounds, much like "c" "s" and "z".

Germanic languages are awesome, because it constantly sounds like you're just about to kick someone's ass or you're discussing matters of grave importance.

Everything in German sounds like a weapon.

Even the sausage names.

DYRE · 2011-06-19 18:20:59

Especially the sausage names.

Fire ze bratwurst!

Chagen · 2011-06-19 18:21:46

The word "glory" in German is "Herrlichkeit".

A frickin' hospital is a "Krankenhaus".

German is a badass language.

Noimporta · 2011-06-19 18:24:09

Butterfly = Schmetterling = Potential assault rifle name

IanExMachina · 2011-06-19 18:24:15

The only german phrase you'll ever need to know to be a badass:

"Ich habe eine panzerfaust und ich werde sie dir in den arsch stecken!"

*threatening gesture with fist*

GLORIOUSLeader · 2011-06-19 18:26:10

I can recognize "panzer".

IanExMachina · 2011-06-19 18:28:57

I have a tankfist and will shove it up your arse.

Roughly.

Schitzo · 2011-06-19 18:29:43

French just sounds annoying to me.

Stormtroper · 2011-06-19 18:33:34

Les haineux vont hainer.

^^ I feel the same way about Spanish, which is kind of ironic because my dad's Hispanic. It's also ironic because I took Spanish for my school's secondary language courses.
