What language do you find the most seductive, and what about it makes you feel that way?

Strangely German, because it makes me feel at home. Also a few of the British accents and languages, particularly Welsh, Scottish, and Northern England. I can only imagine that's in my blood somehow.

Deutsch ist rine schönes Spreache. Ich liebe die klang von es und hoffe dass in mein Zukunft ich can the ganze Sprache lernen
- Es macht mir fröh. Ich hoffe eines Tages weider zurück gehen.

Kotlin or if I'm really in the mood, Python

You had me at the first part and turned me off at the second.
- I'd never write an entire application in python, but sometimes i have a few too many and think that dynamic typing might be fun

My dumass thought op meant programming language, and I spent 2 minutes thinking of some sarcastic reply.

Printf(hello);

Ladies go crazy with C.
- This won't work, and it's called C++, and that's C, not C++.

I know it's wrong, but there's something about the forbiddenness of JS that makes it sexy.

Oh, baby, you wanna do what with my strings?

Jokes aside, Scala or Haskell, hands down. Those are sexy languages that make gorgeous code.

It's very cliché but the french language. And english with a scottish or UK accent.

People have only had luck with me when they’ve spoken English. Otherwise it’s hard for me to understand their answers to such questions as “your place or mine?” or “dear god what are you gonna do with that spatula?!”.

My hovercraft is full of eels

It would have to be Python. It's just got such syntactical sugar it makes me wet in places I shouldn't be.

Morse code has a rhythm that just does something to me

Whatever language the opposite of French is

Québécois French?

English because I can understand it

Came here to say this. But like.. English with a sexy accent.
- For me that sexy accent is a Scottish one and I'm not talking Glaswegian council estate

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
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.
