While I'm at it, I'm gonna say right now that if you think German is a "harsh" or "ugly" language, it's because you've never heard actual German being spoken in regular conversation and have only heard Hollywood German

Actual German is a beautiful, fun, inventive language that, yes, does have more fricatives than English, but the act of speaking it is incredibly fluid and dynamic, not at all harsh

Americans who have never spoken to anyone from Germany: German is such an ugly language!!

Germans: I keep my hands warm in the winter with these nice wool hand-shoes :)
