It's beautiful in songs mostly... depends truly, plus... depends on whom you are talking to... me and my mother are rather loud to each other for no reason really... we just speak russian louder than any other language.
random (well, sorta random) question: how do you stay fluent in all the languages you know? since I stopped studying french, i've been losing a lot of it. and i'm down to barely understanding spanish..
I never do seem to loose languages as mch, got a knack for em I guess... But still... Enforced practice! I make my mother speak Russian to me, no other language... and I listen to lots of Russian music. I speak Hebrew, and no other language with me stepdad and his family. I also read the news in Hebrew everyday. Spanish is less of a problem... all of my co-workers right now are Mexicans, some of whom don't even speak English... so I get way too much practice. ...and English... ehh... it's everywhere man... I find myself thinking in English more and more everyday.
