Well, knowing the language can make it worse, in a way. I know a lot of people who speak *ugly* French if that makes sense.

Yeah, it does. I think that once you speak a language, you get a whole bunch of other biases towards it, which are based on people you know/experiences/what it's like to learn it, and who knows what else. It's interesting to hear what people think of languages when they *don't* understand anything.
For example, nowadays I think Japanese sounds fine (I can understand it), but I still remember that at first I thought it was a rather angry sounding language.

I like the...staccato of Japanese. Western languages rarely have that.

I get that. For me, I prefer slightly more melodic languages, which I think is one of the reasons I prefer Korean - it has some of the style of Japanese, but more vowels and consonants. And the intonations are really fun, especially if you're annoyed or complaining.

One language I really want to learn, which has very little practical value for me, is Welsh. Language goals for when I've achieved something close to fluency in Korean/Japanese, I guess.
