Fake English?

Do you guys know how when people make fun or make fake language of what another language is? Like what it sounds like to people that have never spoken or know anything about that language? For example chinese people speak Chinese and it sounds to people that don't speak it like. Ching chong. And the Russian and German language sound very angry. I wonder how English sounds to people that have never spoken or understand it?

Not at all.[/quote] I guess it depends on who's speaking it. I'd rather hear French spoken by a young woman than an angry old man.[/quote]THAT'S IT!!! You just reminded me of my pseudo-"epiphany" I had when I was there. It was that French spoken by men sounds perverted and lecherous and French spoken by women was incredibly soothing and delightful to your ears. At least to me, it does.
