Instead of English what language would you rather want to see spoken in Europe?

I chose Italian because I like how it sounds and spelling pretty much corresponds to pronounciation (at least there are some simple rules to remember, no pronounciation madness like for English language).
Also Italian is the closest living language to the ancient Latin.

I think most people would choose, if not their own language, then what is easiest to learn for them as native-speakers. If they speak Germanic they would pick German, if they speak Slavic then Russian, and if they speak Romance then Italian or Spanish, etc.

I, too, for this reason would pick German.

We could do both French and German. French is definitely more a Kultursprache, German more a "Wirtschaftssprache".

Well so far 3 of 5 Slavic speakers voted for non Slavic languages.

I also vote for Italian. I don't understand it but it sounds beautiful.
