Well, thank you!
I personally like the French accent when they're speaking English. That has got to be the sexiest sound in the whole wide world.

We were sipping vodka on a sandy hill, over-looking the dead sea and he asked where I was from.
I told him I was from Glasgow.
He answered: "You don't sound very Glaswegian, you sound more like you're from Edinburgh."
And I replied: "No, that's just education..."
Everything sounds sexy in French. Even saying something like: "Je voudrez une baguette avec jambon et fromage...sil vous plaits..."
Especially with that hoarse sort of French voice....
brrrrr... brb, need to pop by the toilet.

I like the sound of Yiddish myself .. always makes me laugh whatever they may be saying.
French to the American ear (mine) is sensual, musical, very plesent.
German always comes off angry and stiff.
Brits all sound like they have a stick up there arse and are trying hard not to let on about it .. stiff upper lip and all that rot.
American english is mixed depending on what part of the country you're in .. it runs the whole range from simply ignorant to totally stupid.😀
