English, because I understand it.
Brainfuck or Chef are pretty awesome.
Spanish, because I know enough to understand most of it, but it still feels new and mysterious
Romance Latinam sequitur.
/Pater iocus, annus CMXCIX ab urbe condita/
P.S. Romance folows Latin – dad joke, year 999 since founding the city ;)
Whatever language the opposite of French is
Québécois French?
Ouai la
Nah, Canadians are cool. Approved.

Fukn slaughtered an entire province lmao
Play a goose honking and then Chretien delivering a speech and let Americans try to guess which is which

I don’t think I have a particular language I find seductive. I am a native Spanish speaker, I like Italian for sure and some accents from Spain. But I wouldn’t say it’s particularly a seductive thing, I think what is seductive is the voice pitch and how the speech is delivered, and that can happen in any language.
Completely agree, it’s how you say it.
French is the the go-to. Closely followed by Italian. They’re classics for a reason.
Romantic, even
Russian if spoken from a sweet smokey voice
Haskell, prologue I’m into the quirks
Kinky!
For me, Japanese, someone like Atsuko Tanaka or aya hirano could whisper whatever they want to My lesbian ass
Would your ass whisper back
To atsuko? Hell yeah Aya? Probably needs a bit convincing
Norwegian, it’s like Danish but with an attractive accent.
It would have to be Python. It’s just got such syntactical sugar it makes me wet in places I shouldn’t be.
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”.

Right … so finding a bunch of people to be off-base and being willing to say so means I must be in an irreconcilably bad mood?!
The idea is pretty simple … there is such a thing as providing an unwelcome or tone-deaf contribution to a conversation, and there’s such a thing as letting people know without wanting to be too mean or aggressive about it. It’s not a bid deal, it’s a fairly social thing, and no one needs to get or be upset about it.
Beyond that, if you’re one to support or welcome a sort-of Reddit culture of hijacking threads, well I’d suspect that would be one of the things best left behind, simply because it allows communities and threads to be user friendly and foster whatever cultures they want. Allowing and encouraging a culture that accepts people roaming all over the place hijacking whichever parts of lemmy they want would, IME, only degrade the experience for everyone else.
IMO, if people wanted to divert this into something about programming languages … that’s cool … cross-post to the appropriate community and go from there.

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’.
I hear you. I like both.
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.
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 bitching about them.
English cause I like it
