My vote: Arabic.

Hideous gutteral hacking noises that makes the speaker sound like they are gonna cough up their esophagus.

/thread because there cannot possibly be a more awful sounding language.

Ahem, Ahem, cough, cough. Usually not as guttural as Arabic, but I used to find Hebrew sound really disgusting.

Kh-R-Sh-T that's how it sounded to me many years ago. As I speak it now, it somewhat grew on me, Arabic as well.
I don't speak it, but I find it very rhythmic and melodic, and I think some Arabic dialects have their guttural vowels/consonants less enunciated.

Finnish. It's like some scandinavian version of german, just ultra harsh and like its intended to sound overly complicated, ugly, harsh, cold, threatening.

Arabic certainly isn't beautiful either, but like a good swede i will go with Finnish Razz

I’ll add German and the greater Scandinavian family of languages. Everything sounds like barking orders Laughing

@zenux I’m assuming you mean Arab-Israeli Hebrew? I hate it too. Including the music Vomit

Hebrew or German for me.
German doesn't sound really ugly. Just harsh. Hearing people flirt in German sounds...odd. Like the most aggressive soft flirting you can hear...lol

Hebrew, at least my exposure to it, sounds like people arguing even if they are not. And like they are always just about ready to work up that thick phlegm to spit on you.
Yiddish is 2x as worse to me.

Two on the list for me -

Dutch - too much phlegm required. Laughing
Brazilian Portuguese - the cadence in which they speak bothers me for some reason.

Holy shit I remember this song! I used to stream Digitally Imported (Eurodance radio) in the background while grinding in MMO's 20'ish years ago, and it would always come on. Never knew the name of it or even how to begin to describe it.

Crazy to hear it all these years later. And no, I still don't like it! Laughing

Definitely Dutch.


"Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one's own understanding without another's guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one's own mind without another's guidance. Dare to know! (Sapere aude.) "Have the courage to use your own understanding," is therefore the motto of the enlightenment."

Truly I dont think french deserves its reputation of being a pleaant languge. It depends on the speaker of course but it's overrated.

@Immunity

So you wont be listening to brazil phonk then.



Thai is awful. Imagine being married to a nagging thai wife

-2. Perhaps, talking to them might help.
-1. Discover their cell number and call them with complaints from a burner phone making sure your voice is not recognized.
0. Send them anonymous letters with complaints.
1. Check if those Arabs are moslems and snitch on them to the nearest mosque, that'll teach'em to go spliffing instead of boozing up. Razz
2. If they make noise during rest hours, report them to the noise police.
3. Start using best ANC headphones when neighbours bother you with their loud voices.
4. Start using sleeping pills in case of insomnia
4.1. Go to shrink to get prescription for more potent psychoshit to calm you down.
4.2. Use white noise speaker to mask outside noise when sleeping.
4.3. If you can sleep on your back, you can wear those ANC headphones during sleep.
4.3.1. There are options for side sleepers too. I can elaborate if interest arises.
4.3.2. There is even more effective option with a combination of earbuds playing white noise/ calming music and earmuffs above them. This option muffs high frequencies (like women/children cries) even better than the best ANC headphones.

@zenux Some good ideas here. I actually just bought some earplugs for sleeping and they seem to block the noise well enough. I considered speaking to them but they are not the type to be reasoned with.

I dont know if police does anything about noise in France. Will look into it.

Roast some pork and turn the smoke their way with a fan; when they start complaining say "sorry, can't hear you. What? WHAT?"

I had problems with my neighbour's dogs barking and wailing about 6-8 years ago. First thing I tried were earplugs, they didn't work for me, hurt my ears and didn't block efficiently any bothering me sounds. Tried all kinds of earplugs including wax ones.

Goddamnit. Jokebot 0.1 Alpha, is stuck on the same lame joke. Someone yank the dongle from the rear port and slam it back in until it seats.
Look for the polished metal egg-shaped dongle with flared base made for firm rear-port retention and repeated reinsertion. Yank that. It seems it needs a reboot, or a upgrade, or something.
