    Nice scientific approach to proving that German sounds angry.

    He’s also wrong by saying that people think German is warlike and ugly because of Hitler. German neighbours (e.g. Poles) have written sources hundred years old proving him wrong (at least 1890-ish)

    Edit: even older lol, Wincenty Kadłubek was implying that in ~1200

      Not like I perceived it. And I wouldn’t say I think Polish sounds melodic or beautiful. Maybe neighbors hated each other for centuries.
