    Default Most Beautiful-Sounding Romance Language?

    For me, it has always been European Portuguese.

    I know there are many dialects, but I have included the most well-known ones in the poll

    I like the Portuguese accent a lot, especially the more Northern Accents. Italian is also pretty good. I've never been a big fan of French, and when it comes to Spanish/Castillian, I've always preferred the accents that don't have the lisp or "th" sounds that's commonly found in Spain.

    Romanian to me sounds halfway Italian and halfway Slavic.

    Portuguese doesn't sound Romance at all in sound but I like its sound best. People from the Algarve sound like they have a cold, though.

    I agree with you about Spanish - I prefer the Andalusian accent to the Castillian accent even though to Spanish it seems to sound ugly the Andalusian accent
