I think German sounds cool, but usually not beautiful. But, that's just
my personal opinion. I tend to like stops and simple syllables,
frequent stop-vowel pairs are lovely, which is probably why I like
Japanese so much. The syllable _n_ is another thing I love about
Japanese, especially when it's prolonged in songs.
