It is a tough language to listen to.

+1000 both Vietnamese and German

The most beautifully fascinating and also harshest sounding language is Chechen:

That and some of those languages from Dagestan, like Avar and Lezgin. I don’t know if ugly is the word, but harsh sounding

I agree that German is the worst (and I've been to Germany many times). It's just so abrasive and makes everyone sound angry all the time.

I thought Icelandic was really cool. Also agree with Gaelic. If you get into the hardcore Irish countryside, the residents could scream "I am calling about your vehicle's extended warranty" over and over and I'd listen happily

What I don't like about French is that there are a lot of homophones. The words all sound the same.

Anyone else getting problematic vibes from this thread?

The language they speak on the Sopranos. The worst.

I find the Vietnamese language very harsh on the ears. Maybe not ugly but not pleasant sounding.

I live German. It is a beautiful language. I also love the way Russian sounds.

I’m German and I understand why others don’t like the language.

Grew up in a family where both German and Swedish were spoken.

I find one of them delightful, and I’m sorry, but the other one just sounds awful.

Icelandic and Portuguese are definitely my favorites to listen to.

I really dislike the southern accent in American English. It hurts my ears.

I will always love French, if only because I remember a hot guy who I had a fling with in Paris 30 years ago speaking it to me. Oh, Jean-Pierre...

German and Dutch sound harsh to me.

French or Mandarin? Really? Do they sound similar in anyway to you?
