There seems to be a misconception among English speakers than Spanish from Spain is called in Castilian as opposed to the Spanish spoken in the Americas. Actually Spanish and Castilian are synoymous and both speakers from Spain and speakers from the Americas used both terms interchangeably.
What do you think are the most beautiful sounding languages?
I think Italian, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Greek, Arabic, and English spoken by some Irish, English, and Scottish people (I've never heard Welsh accents so I can't compare).
Wow you really think Arabic sounds beautiful?
I think French, Italian, Korean, Spanish, Greek sound good
Latin sounds beautiful. French doesn't sound very beautiful to me, but I like Italian and Portuguese, especially its Brasilian dialect. Spanish can be beautiful, but mostly its Latin American dialects. Hungarian sounds very harsh. Old English IMO sounds better than Modern English (for example, I like Old English diphtongs ea and eo, which are absent in Modern English).

A gorgeous language is ’Olelo Hawai’i unfortunately only about a 1000 native speakers know the language. No not talking pidgin.
It is, indeed, a gorgeous language. I had no idea that there were so few speakers left.
