I didn't expect French to have so many votes... I never found it sexy at all. French accent, maybe, but French actually sounds kind of ugly to me. Nothing sexy about sounding like you have a stuffy nose.

With understanding i have a feeling that the language becomes a little less sexy.

In the days when my French was rather poor i did consider it to be a sexy language but after of living there there of course found it far less so, if at all, so though i rate it as number one in my case it is my first impressions before becoming familar with the it.

Expect would feel the same if i had a better knowledge of Italian or Spanish as well.

It's funny how the majority of people finds the Roman Languages (French, Italian, Spanish etc.) more attractive and sexy than Germanic languages (English, German, Dutch, Scandinavian languages). However, i'm more a fan of the Germanic language family. It would be interesting to ask this question to somebody, who lives out of North America/Europe, for instance, a chinese or a japanese.

I prefer languages with vowel harmony, such as Turkish, Mongolian, Finnish or Hungarian. They are all from Mongolia originally

Turkish is a beautiful language, but it is more suitable for Music than for Sexiness

IMO, Brazilian Portuguese is sexy. European Portuguese is not. Polish and Farsi are also both very sexy.

I agree. Swedish women sound very sexy. I guess it helps that I understand the language.

Any romance language will have my knees buckling, though I voted for Portuguese.
