Spanish / Portuguese … but can’t explain why. I think it’s mostly cultural vibe based.
Gotta say, for me, all the techy programming language replies in here are pretty lame. It’s fine that the fediverse leans techy at this stage, great even. But a thread like this was really looking for some linguistics and personal experiences with learning and understanding languages. If you can’t help but turn any topic into one about programming, that’s cool, but doesn’t mean you have to add some noise (seriously a ruby v Python conversation in a thread about seductive human languages?!) to every conversation that happens to use the word “language”.

Personally Spanish and Portuguese are a world apart. Portugese is beautiful to hear, very melodic. Spanish feels ugly to me, I can't stand the hissing 's' and the thick 'v' pronounced as 'b'.

As a portuguese, I understand and agree with this, although it's my native language, we don't notice or value our own language. I love to hear italian, it sounds like music
-
Spanish speaker here, I also agree with the assessment- though my preference is the opposite
-
Fair enough, preference be preferences, I love the spanish people.

I hear you. I like both.

The beauty of a threaded conversation platform is that you can just close threads you're not interested in. Or, apparently, start a new thread removed about them.
