and then you have the beautiful Hexadecimal
48 65 6c 6c 6f 20 41 6c 69 7a 65 65 20 41 6d 65 72 69 63 61 20 68 6f 77 20 61 72 65 20 79 6f 75 20

So, are you going to tell us what you said, or do I have to dig up a converter somewhere?

I just mean I highly doubt that German has the reputation of a harsh language when it comes to Goethe and Schiller...

Which dialect sounds the harshest to you, and which the nicest?
By the way, historically, my wife's family is from Germany. Although they no longer speak German, the essence of being German still flows through them.

But I guess your opinion what language is beautiful has also something to do what kind of languages you are used too... by the way... so many people say French is the most beautiful language... I wonder what the French would pick if you would answer them this question... what language they would think is the most beautiful (apart from their mother tongue)...

Of course, English (and especially American English) is a little bit of everything (took words from many other languages), and has had waves of influence from other countries over the centuries.
Do you know what part of the UK has the most interesting or best sounding accent to you?
Its funny, but I really like Spanish as a language. It could be that Spanish would be the most beautiful language - if spoken with french emphasis and accent (I would love to hear what that would sound like).
