I like the sounding of anatolian Turkish (any dialect exept maybe that of the Laz)Other than my own language my order would be:
- Persian
- Kyrghiz
- English
- Mongolian
- Italian
The ones which dont sound quite nice to my ear are:
- French
- Russian
- Japanese
no offence

No. Karadeniz= Kara+Deniz (Tenghiz in old Turkish) means Black Sea. So it is the Turkish dialect that is spoken in the southeastern coasts of Black sea by Lazic people. Because they didnt have some specific Turkish sounds in their past language before, they have a very interesting dialect which is like a Turkish that is spoken like Lazish. But I dont like it much. I prefer Lazish rather than this mixed up dialect.

You are right arkada (or arkadash) means friend.

which language sounds better?
Since i never leave my country... and not so many people i know out of malaysia... I just can rely on one major source.. 'broadcasting channel'
well of course.. drama and movies from other countries...
Here is my choice...
*Arab - it's sound like a sophisticated lang... ahahha... but a little harsh..
*Spanish - I just love 'Mis Tres Hermanas'
*Urdu / Hindi
*Persian - It sounds lovely to me...
......... well... that's it....
arigato...

To be honest I think French sounds best, whatever you think of the French their speech still sounds very elegant.

It probably depends on which accent of French. Nothing against the Canadians, of course, but Quebec French sounds harsher than those from France.

How rude of me to make a criticism and not produce my own language preference. Now I'm open for a beating.
Here it is in no particular preferential order:
-French
-British and Scottish English (Cockney too sometimes)
-Istanbulite Efendi Turkish
-Italian
-Japanese

I love English, yes I am totally biased but what the hell, aside from English I like Italian and Japanese, one thing I find amazing about most foreign languages is how they are spoken so fast, there doesnt sound like theres a gap between words in some languages. Just sounds like one massive word however of course im going to say that.
It's just baffling, in English unless somebody is a right motormouth and its impossible to hear properly then you can recognise when one word ends and begins, the reason ive never been good with some foreign languages is to me anyway they seem to be spoken incredibly fast compared to my native language.
Italian and Japanese though are just lovely sounding languages.

Oh yeah! The worst thing for a novice is to hear your selected language of choice from some hyperactive locals.

i reckon persian is a very nice language. here is why--
Countless amounts of dialects, some sound harsher more like turkish to non speakers, while some dialects are oft and melodious sounding like an european language to non speakers. I personallu like the accent of farsi spoken in Tehran,, it is so soft, and i love the way the drag the words in the end for example-
If i was to say 'yes im good thankyou' in my accent it would souns like this
: BAHLE HUBEM TASIKUR.
but in the tehrani accent it is softer and melodious to hear ans ounds like this
: BAAHLEE KHUBAM MERCIII, or KHUBAM KHAILI MAMNOON
*btw i wrote it how it is said.
Here is a little saying i remember my cousin always singing to me im not sure if i saying it 100% right but here goes -
DOKHTARA SHIR AN MESLE SHAMSHIR AN,,,, PESARA MOOSH AN MESLE KHARGOOSH AN.
and it is said like this
THOGHTARA SHEER AN MESLE SHEEMSHEER AN,,, PESARHA MUSH AN MESLE GHARGHUSH AN.
we dont use the guttural sounds of arabic in farsi, and the cool thing about it is that unlike arabic or turkish (i think ) or many other languages , it can be spoken to sound like asiatic language (ie., turkish), it can be spoken in russian, east european accent, and also in west european,, romance accents. I have actually seen some1 speak farsi in an italian accent and it was unbelievable how italianoid it sounded and it was preety cool.
