It depends of course on the person. But in some cases the solution of this question can be solved like the following quote:
+ + + + + + + + + +
A Finn and a Swede were arguing which ones mother tongue sounds more
beautiful.
Since they couldn't find any solution they asked help from an english
linguistic, who asked both of them to translate the following poem by Percy Shelley into their own languages.
"Island, island, Grassy island, Grassy island's Bride."
It was the Finn's turn first. He translated:
"Saari, saari, Heinäsaari, Heinäsaaren Morsian."
Then the Swede translated:
"Ö, ö, Hö-ö, Hö-öns Mö."

My favourite is the Telemark dialect of Norwegian. Other cool languages are Welsh and Irish-celtic.

Many are tend to believe that the American (english) language is the most commonly used 'lingo' around the globe,

But they are mistaken

. . . It is surpassed by both the Chinese and Indian (Hindu

) languages

! But I prefer the english one, as it is the most commonly used here in the Discussion Forum

If we're talking about the written language nothing can touch the east Asian languages.
