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

      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.

    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?!”.

    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.

        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.

    Spanish, because I know enough to understand most of it, but it still feels new and mysterious

    Finnish! Especially since Iistened to Jukio Kallio’s Kuvankaunis album. Listened to it many times.

    Maybe it’s so alluring to me because it sounds close to hungarian, but at the same time more rythmic and melodic to me.

      Turkish. The same goes for it, try listening something. I really enjoy Almora.

      Edit: te is magyar vagy?

        I’ve had the luck to meet some good Turkish people for a couple of days a few years back, I remember they showed me all kinds of music. I agree, it’s also a beautiful language.

        BTW, én is magyar vagyok, igen :) Ugyan itt bojler eladó!
