People have opinions regarding which language is the most beautiful. But its hard to understand why some people think Japanese, Persian or Finnish are beautiful, because when I google those languages I only find videos about learning those languages, news reports or songs.
So please tell us which language is the most beautiful and post a video that proves your point. Preferable a speech or conversation, not songs.

It's the second most spoken romance language, yet it feels like french and italian have more people interested in learning those languages globally. Some people even think Brazil and Portugal speak Spanish.

I'm Czech and I know English as a foreign language, but as a high school student I need to learn a second foreign language.
I have to choose between Russian and German and I need to choose the language that is easier to learn because I really need to finish my studies and honestly I'm struggling with learning in general and thus make it at least a little easier for me in languages🥹

Are there any words in your languages that shows your culture? I’m currently writing about why protecting languages is important, and I was thinking about relating it to culture.

Many languages divide their nouns into multiple categories, traditionally known as 'grammatical genders, such as masculine el auto (the car) and feminine la casa (the house) in Spanish. Have you ever wondered whether the split between those categories is even or whether one grammatical gender has more words than the other?
In this chart, I compare the distribution of nouns into each gender in a few languages, based on English Wiktionary categories. For instance, English Wiktionary lists 6471 entries in the category 'Irish feminine nouns' and 9758 entries in the category 'Irish masculine nouns' leading to the 40%/60% split in the chart.
Danish and Swedish nouns are split into 'common' (roughly corresponding to both masculine and feminine nouns in related languages) and 'neuter' genders. I'd expect the same split for Dutch, but since Wiktionary has separate categories for feminine and masculine nouns, I went with that criterion.

How to make a foreign language without preexisting historical roots in a particular country a well-entrenched indigenized language within a few generations? Let's say make English and Spanish a well-entrenched indigenized languages in Belgium/Switzerland and Philippines/United States, respectively?
Do you think mandating the entrenched elite class and civil servant aspirants in a particular country to speak a specific foreign language will make a difference over the long-term, to the point where middle and lower socioeconomic class will begin to speak the language of the elite class within a few generations?

What does it mean? I am confident it is Amazigh. These pictures were taken in an Amazigh speaking area of Morocco and in the third picture, there are clearly other Amazigh symbols. But I can’t find anything online about it. I tried asking AI and it just gave me fake answers. Any help?
