Mine;

3. German; "Es ist schøn", "Guten morgen!". "Hallo!", "Willkommen!"

2. Norwegian; "Det er skjønt", "God morgen!", "Hallo!", "Velkommen!"

1. Swedish; "Det e skjønt det!" "God Morgon", "Hallo!", "Valkommen!"

Notice that they're similiar to each other?

English, Spanish and German. English is my native language, and is the de-facto lingua franca for the world.

Spanish is more pleasant sounding, as is almost any other language. Because it is Latin based, I have been able to use my knowledge of Spanish to converse with people who speak other Latin based languages, like Italian and Portuguese.

German is fun to listen to because English is largely derived from German and there are enough cognates (words that are alike) to guess a word meaning here and there. I also enjoy how German often makes words which are like several English words stuck together.

I really can't pick a third language, that I like, they all come in third. Wait, Portuguese. Those are ranked in termed of the beauty of the sound of them. I like Finnish too.
