Top 10 Coolest Languages

German is the language of logic. Words combine and separate in a way that makes sense. It has always been the language of the working man, driven by people. The only ones who say German sounds angry are those who are rude and offensive enough, often lazy people who love and study languages with a culture based around pleasure, not hard work or efficiency.

German has beautiful pronunciation, and of course, there's variation depending on the speaker and their country of origin (Switzerland, Austria, Germany, etc.). Most people's only experience with the language is racist stereotypes and speeches from Hitler they heard in high school. It's very uneducated to say such ignorant things, like claiming it's an angry-sounding language.

My native language is English, and if you think about it hard enough, you get to see the true beauty and how cool English actually is.

Another reason why I think English is cool is that it is spoken almost everywhere. Wherever you go, there will always be someone who speaks English!

English is very precise and logical, yet nuanced and expressive. It already functions as the world's unofficial language for all things important. Apart from some weird spellings, it is great because the rules are fairly simple.

It doesn't mess around with conjugating verbs a thousand different ways, and you don't have to worry about gender cases, plus many other awesome benefits.

When you learn French, you see the world differently. It's no coincidence that it's the second most learned language after English. Moreover, it's useful in many countries all over the world.

It's the most beautiful language, the language of love, culture, and elegance. It's really the coolest language in the world.

I have to say that I think German is pretty cool, but it always sounds like you are coughing. I speak French and German, and I think French is far more beautiful. French is expressive, but the only thing I find German useful for expressing is anger. If you speak both French and German, you'll find that French is more expressive in all situations.

As for comparing French to other languages, I don't speak them. However, I can say that I like the sound of French much better than any of them, and I think French deserves the top spot, or at least #2. It is hard to compete with German.

Russian, even though it is extremely difficult to learn, is so interesting with the flexible word order and mysterious sounds. I have been studying for three years and feel as if I am just now appreciating the culture and influence the Russian people have made upon the world.

It sounds very cool and is difficult to learn, making it something impressive to know. Additionally, there are plenty of Russian speakers in the world to practice with, making it practical compared to Gaelic and Irish.

There's a reason why it's the second most spoken language in the world after Chinese. By the way, 95% of Chinese speakers live in China, while Spanish speakers are everywhere. Therefore, technically, Spanish is the most spoken language globally. Spain rocks.

Passionate and to the point. It is what it is. There is no hiding in fancy French or Latin vocabulary (it would be silly). No need to make weird noises to sound good. As long as you say something meaningful, you are good.

I feel that Spanish is easier to learn than a lot of other languages, and it's fun, too!

Italian is the closest language to Latin, so if you know even a few Latin roots, it will make the whole process easier. It is also the language in which most music is written. Have you ever wondered what words like adagio, espressivo, presto, and fortissimo mean? They are all Italian terms that describe how music is played: slow, with expression, very quickly, and loudly.

As a musician, I have learned a lot of Italian just by reading music sheets. Give Italian a go! It is a beautiful language and definitely worth learning.

Learn it at school. It makes us sound good. It's an awesome language! I love the kanji too, and how every picture means a word. When you put two or more pictures together, you can guess what the word is. It's a very sensible language.

Hiragana, Katakana, Kanji, and Romaji (the one I am using now) mixed together add a bunch of inconsistencies in reading. Add counters and onomatopoeia, and you've got the coolest language.

I love languages in general, and there are a bunch of others I love as well, but Japanese is pure magic.

I love Swedish. I used to teach myself Swedish, and then my parents took me to Sweden for a week so I could practice more. I love the language so much now. Ha en bra dag!

Some of you have never heard Swedish before and are just passing this one by. You guys HAVE to look up someone talking in Swedish. It's amazing.

Swedish is so beautiful! I love the language so much I just had to learn it. Some of my favorite singers are Swedish.

It sounds so beautiful and unique, and the phonics are very different from English. Also, it feels very soft and dances on your tongue.

Irish is like Spanish but better. It is more phonetic and has fewer irregularities, like using C or Qu for the /k/ sound. It's a very interesting language. I love its grammar rules because they are so consistent. Irish sounds a lot like Spanish, French, Italian, and Portuguese.

I gotta admit that Irish is among the warmest-sounding languages there is. It truly sounds magical.

It's such a rare language. It's spoken mostly in New York. I love hearing it, and I wish I spoke it!

Such a fun language! It's very close to German.

It's my first language, and I love it. I also love English, Japanese, Spanish, and Chinese, so I tried to learn them all. I find English very brilliant and efficient because I can speak with people all around the world. Japanese is very soothing and sounds so cute. But Chinese and Korean have a certain feeling, I guess? Their words are full of meanings.

I really like to write love in Chinese characters after one of my Chinese friends taught me. Its character is a combination of roof and friend (please correct me if I'm wrong). I love my language because, maybe because I am a native speaker, but I find it beautiful whenever I read or write poems and novels.

It has cool grammar, sounds cool, has a cool writing system, has a lot of unique history, a lot of people speak it, and it comes from a unique culture. It should be number 1 or 2.

Chinese is very ancient and sounds very cliché. I would study Chinese, and it just sounds so cool as well. The language itself has so much meaning and culture.

Traditional Chinese looks beautiful when written down. Simplified Chinese looks bad.

Amazing language. Very melodic, it sounds very beautiful when people are not trying to sound like douches. The language can be really tricky for some people to learn as it belongs to the Uralic language family, and its vocabulary can be completely alien to people, as well as tricky grammar.

In my opinion, Finnish is the best and coolest language in the world, mostly because the words are written and pronounced exactly the same. And - surprise, surprise - Finnish is my native language!

I would really LOVE to learn Finnish, but it's hard to find resources since it's not really a language that people LEARN... Especially online. It really sounds beautiful!

Bulgarian is a beautiful language. I speak English, French, and Spanish, and also study German, but my native one is Bulgarian!

The Bulgarian language is very beautiful. It has logical grammar but at the same time is hard.

It has the most logical grammar in the world.

I know both Danish and Swedish, and I always used to think Norwegian sounded so stupid and child-like. But after living in Norway for a few months and getting some exposure to the language, it sounds really cute.

It's definitely the easiest of the Scandinavian languages for native English speakers in terms of pronunciation. It's also sort of like the in-between Scandinavian language since Norwegian is understood by both Danes and Swedes.

Norwegian is slept on. It is like Swedish but so much more melodic and better sounding.

Honestly, the best part of a language can be its complexity, and Arabic is pretty cool since letters can vary in shape. However, since several letters have similar shapes with very distinct differences, even learning these variations is simple. I haven't gotten into sentence structure yet, but the words by themselves are pretty cool.

Arabic truly is an extremely eloquent and beautiful language. People claim that Romance languages, especially French, are the languages of love. However, I honestly think Arabic is truly the language of love.

There is absolutely nothing in any other language that can encompass the love that habibti (my love) and albi (literally my heart) do.

Greek is the path to open your mind. You achieve a connection with top works from the fields of Philosophy, Literature, Arts, and ancient sciences. I hope everyone has this opportunity!

I love Greek with its relaxing, beautiful sounds. After studying it along with a dozen languages, it has been my favorite.

Its soft tone almost sounds like Spanish and is very subtle. Also, it is a great way to extend your historical background.

Persian might not be the most useful language to learn, but I think it is the most amazing language, and I'm lucky my mother tongue is Persian. It's full of idioms and proverbs, rich literature (you can find the most beautiful and touching poems only in Persian), beautiful and unique sounds, and it's ancient.

Although Persian has been at risk of extinction in history (after the Arabs' and Mongols' attacks), it's widely spoken today. Persian even was the official language of India for a long time in history, covering a large area in Asia.

It sounds really unique! There are a lot of "sh" sounds, but that's what makes it sound cool, in my opinion.

Polish isn't my native language, but it sounds so cool. I wish I could be Polish.

Polish is not so hard to learn, contrary to popular belief. Also, it's beautiful!

I'm so happy to see this here. I love everything Scottish, and I think the way it flows, yet is powerful, is one of the most fascinatingly beautiful things on the planet.

I've been learning Scottish Gaelic for a little while now, and it sounds so cool, so interesting, and so different and cool.

I'm a French dude, and I like Scottish Gaelic, a language that must be learned more.

Portuguese is just beautiful, be it from Brazil, Portugal, or some African countries. The best is from Portugal, though. It's original and poetic, while Brazilian is more fun and happy.

I love Portugal Portuguese because it's a beautiful language, and it's the original. It is, without a doubt, the best language in the world, spoken by the best people in the world.

Amazing language. It is spoken by the best people in the world (Brazilians). The language sounds super cool, and Brazilian Portuguese is really open and free.

Remember, this is a list of the coolest languages, and that is definitely Icelandic. One of the oldest languages still used today, Icelandic is practically identical to the most fascinating historical language of all time, Old Norse.

Icelandic is an absolutely magical-sounding language, and in my opinion, it is the best poetry language of all time. When you visit Iceland, as I have done, you will realize that all other languages pale in comparison. Icelandic sounds like it is from another world. It is beautiful, unique, and ethereal, just like the perfect country from which it comes.
