I too think Italian is a beautiful language, although I don't know it that well. And I agree with you on French...and Haitian Creole is also a beautiful language...it has pretty much the same sounds as French and would sound pretty much the same to someone who didn't know either one, however, it has a very rich oral tradition in terms of proverbs and riddles, more so in my opinion than many other modern languages. The proverbs contain a lot of wisdom, and some are even a little naughty, but still make a profound statement!
