What, no Tagalog?

No offense, but I am always wondering if it's just the language that sounds so harsh, or if the person speaking it is having a really bad day.

Another vote for French - the reason I picked it for my third language was because I always loved to hear it spoken.

I think the culture is interesting and I have liked the people whom I have met, but I'm not crazy about the language.
