Italian is pretty nice to hear, too.That said, I appreciate French as the most sound pleasing and elegant language in the world, and Spanish is pretty good to hear be spoken too.

I think there's a rule but it has plenty of exceptions. That reminds me of an English teacher at school who repeated on and on that we had to check the pronunciation of every word in the dictionary, or we'd be wrong.(I don't know if this thread is the right one to post my comment, but here it goes)
The first thing I learned playing the first Dragon's Dogma game is the pronunciation of the word "Arisen". I imagined that, being a word derived from "rise", the pronunciation of the letter 'i' would sound the same as in, for example, Rise of Nations.
But no, the way the word is said in the game it's more like "Areesen" (with the letter 'i' as in "see").
Until some time ago, I also thought that the letter 'i' in the word "engine" was pronounced as in "swine", "brine", "fine", "pine", because all of these end in '-ine'. But again, I was wrong, so wrong
And they say that Portuguese is a difficult language
So it's a dud?What's a "dord"?
Here's what the Merriam-Webster dictionary says: "dord (dôrd), n. Physics & Chem. Density.". To be more precise, this is what the dictionary said in the 30's. Actually it's a "ghost" word, a word that doesn't exist (in the English language).
Fun fact: Wikipedia claims that it stands for 'Wide Fidelity', but the only reference it gives doesn't confirm it. Apparently, the IEEE wrote that it was a short for 'Wireless Fidelity', so who knows what's true.'Wi-Fi' Doesn't Mean What You Think It Means
Wi-Fi was coined in 1999 by the same marketing company that came up with the name Prozac.gizmodo.com
"pibbuR" who means pibbuR
It may sound a little bit vulgar for non-miners or people that never had contact with miners. I think it will die out soon, because coal-mining is a thing of the past here in Germany.So not vulgar, then.
