Manliest/most feminine languages

Name: الأنونيموس 2008-07-21 18:41

The manliest is, by far, Arabic. If Captain Falcon were real, he'd be a manly fucking towelhead, in the unforgiving desert of the Empty Quarter of Saudi Arabia born and raised, speaking the roughest dialect of the harshest language. And his name would be QAA'ID SHAHID!

For the most feminine one I'll have to settle with Swedish. It's very soft, it flows nicely and is always spoken in a sort of sing-song tune. Svenska tjejer är heta!

I agree with this gentleman. French and German makes you want to cough out your lungs.

Where are spanish and japanese sounds are very soft, even the rolling Rs for spanish.

Some Germanic lanugages sound quite masculine to me - the toning seems... I mean, imagine a girl speaking in swedish - she's probably hot, but I'd much rather have her speak something softer, more mellow - finnish, perhaps?

Turkish also sounds masculine because of their weird vowels or something I'm not sure.

I find Arabic... not feminine, but not manly at all - the toning I find atrocious. Perhaps gay is the word I'm seeking.

Russian, with the abundant "j"s and palatilization can sound feminine in a very nice way.

German and Dutch sound almost exactly the same.

No, French sounds like a person explaining a political platform in a very deliberate manner. Or a menu. Seriously, watch some French newscasters; you can just imagine them speaking very passionately but with great restraint about the hardships of the proletariat.

Japanese language can sound both ways. For instance I often see females pronouncing でしょ somehow like "desiyo" while males say "desho" only (unless they're gay).

Really? Imagine anyone, male or female, speaking with a Boston accent. It makes you sound like a dockworker. 

However, this might be tempered with the delicate and genteel Charleston accent, so zero sum gain?

Mostly true, but Dutch pronounces the g more masculine, as if you're an aspiring death metal vocalist.

Swedish looks very manly written down, but it sounds so fucking gay. Big disappointment.

BTW, I've been doing the Rosetta Stone Swedish lessons.
Is that really how you're supposed to pronounce "sju"? They speak it like "hue" or sometimes like "flu", first time I listened to it I went WTF?
When they say sjuksköterska it's almost unintelligible. I kinda expected the "sj" to sound like "sh" or something, but it sounds just like a bunch of windy noises before the vowels.

It takes some getting used to. I gave up learning Swedish a long time ago :)

BTW, try it in Norwegian :)

"sj" represents the phoneme /ɧ/. This is by the way distinct to /h/, which is just like the English "h" in "hot."
Well, good luck on trying to pronounce this.

This sounds a lot like the Rosetta Stone guy.

I intend to. After I'm fluent in Swedish, I'll go for Norwegian, then Danish.

Learn the 2 at the same time, they're pretty similar.

Are you fucking kidding me? It's just a voiceless palatal-velar fricative. Give me something hard to reproduce! ;)

Shit that's a hard sound to make. Thank God I understand enough linguistics to read the wikipedia page, listen to the sound file included there, and then reproduce it based on my knowledge of what "palatal" "velar" "fricative" "dorsal" "central" and "voiceless" mean.

Just a voiceless palatal-velar fricative? No way! Read the page from Wikipædia once again.
also called a voiceless dorso-palatal velar fricative, voiceless postalveolar and velar fricative, or voiceless coarticulated velar and palatoalveolar fricative
Harder than it looks, isn't it?

However, personally I think that pronouncing any of these sounds would be far enough for a Swedish speaker to clearly understand you.

Yeah, have fun with those.
Sju, skjuta, kök, chef, kjol. These are examples of some words I'll bet you'll have a lot of fun with. :)

Also, try this little tongue twister:
Sju sjuka sjömän sköttes av sjutton sköna sjuksköterskor.

VANK
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VANK

VANK or Voluntary Agency Network of Korea is a non-governmental
South Korean organization made up of 16,000 volunteers,
including 1,000 youth members and 5,000 foreign members. It
was started in 1998 by Park Ki-tae and a group of 300 young
people concerned about the "distorted" image non-Koreans had of
Korea. In particular, VANK criticises major online websites,
including the CIA World Factbook, for posting "mistakes or
inappropriate expressions" about Korea,....

Is the Korean Consumer Protection Board part of VANK? lol
