Do you have a certain language you have always felt drawn to?

For me it has always been German,and I was wondering if there are other people who have this with a different language than their own,and if it could have something to do with a former life you’ve had?

I don’t have any connections with Germany or any German speaking family members in this life,but I’ve always felt a connection to it,starting from when I was verry little.

A lot of people think German sounds harsh And ugly but most of the time I don’t feel that way.When I hear someone speak it I get this feeling of “home” and familiarity and it always leaves me wondering why.

I’ve already been having dreams about a possible past life In Nazi germany and I think the dreams aswell as my love for the language make sense togheter.

what do you think?And feel free to share your own stories :)

Italian, with me it's always been Italian.

There are 16 dialects in Italy, let alone sub-dialects, but later I discovered I had had my PL in Tuscany, where they speak the official variant of Italian, so to say.

But I cannot get rid of a Spanish accent when I speak Italian in my dreams/regressions, I note every error I make in Italian.

And why do they say German is harsh and ugly? It depends. IMHO.

Latin, Sanskrit, and Arabic.

My English self and I spoke a slight variation of the same language. Early modern English makes sense to me listening to it, but reading it makes me want to pull my hair out. I suppose that was because he couldn't read it.

I don't think German sounds ugly at all, although I don't have any PL connection to it. Deutsch is schön

Part of the reason I have trouble devoting myself to learning a particular language to a workable extent is because I'm drawn to so many different ones!
Just to name a few: Hawaiian, Maori, Mandarin Chinese, Greek, Serbian, Russian, Czech, Finnish, Welsh...

Although I've never had much interest in German.

Those are a lot of interesting languages!!
And I can actually relate to that,my math sucks so I’ve always been extra drawn to learning foreign languages.Others I’ve been fascinated with are for example Swedish,Spanish and Japanese but like I said ig German might feel a bit closer to me bc it might be past life related.
May I ask where Maori comes from?Ive never heard of it before

Hi, Lavender_004:

German has many dialects, too; I don't know how many, but as Germany and Italy, became united states only in 1870 and 1861, respectively, most of the times each of these countires were separated into many independent states, which favoured formation of dialects.

When Italy was united, the Tuscan dialect was proclaimed to be the official Italian language, due to the great cultural influence of Florence.

In Germany they chose, very similarly, it seems to me either the dialect of Hannover, or the kind of German spoken in the German theatres (the so called 'Bühne Deutsch'),

A friend of mine here (from Munich), wanted to pass an official exam in Spain to become an official German-Spanish interpreter. He complained they gave him to translate a text from a Swiss newspaper, which has a kind of German that horrifies him.

And in the Austrian German there are lots of French words that were eliminated in Germany soon after Napoleon fell ("Wir wollen kosieren ein bisschen": kosieren = causer [French for 'to chat']).

IMHO.

Best Regards.

Latin. I have no idea why. Many times looking at words in other Latin based languages I can figure out roughly what the word means because of the "Latin root". How the hell did I even know about that when I was a little child? Somehow I did! I also like German and don't find it ugly. I was stationed there in the military and grew quite fond of it.

Lavender,
Interesting that you say this. My foreign friends that speak English as a second language tell me that when they first started to learn, it sounded very ugly and guttural to them. Which I can somewhat relate because Both English and Germany are similar. My native language is English, but I do speak some Germany and a little bit of French.

When I had a PL regression many, many years ago I audio taped it. Later when I played it back, I was speaking Gaelic which I know nothing about in this life. The life being reviewed was from Scotland around the 5th century. I was female in that lifetime. I still get chills when I play it back from time to time.

Thanks for sharing your comment and experiences.

There is no such thing as an ugly language imo. For me, the language I've always kind of really liked was Latin, but more specifically the ecclesiastical kind. I'm learning it now actually (plus several other languages.

that’s interesting.It’s making me think that it could be that I don’t think German sounds harsh because I indeed might have spoken it in a past life and that iam already used to it.No idea if it makes sense

Iam also thinking about getting a past life regression,what was it like for you?Did the speaking Gaelic happen spontaneously?

Yes it is true that English and German are both Germanic languages, and I will admit that German is surprisingly a lot like English (even though it may not seem like it on the surface). But I also did hear that English supposedly sounds very weird to people who don't know it since it has more sounds than the average language (40+ vs 20-25). And honestly when I listen to other languages I can hear it.

Lavendar,
Yes, it was spontaneous. When I was under regression, I remember seeing places and things with my eyes closed. I'm not sure how to describe it. I was aware somewhat of being in my body, yet I was above it somehow at the same time. The images and places I saw were familiar to me, yet I was aware of an old dead personality I once had, and I was reliving again. I remember being in love with a man that my family did not approve of which kind of left me very sad. He had to go to war with his clan/tribe and it broke my heart as I felt he would not return. In the end I killed myself by throwing my body off the isles.

It was not until many years later (in this life) I was traveling aboard in Scotland and visited the Iles of Skye in Scotland. I remember getting really sick and I actually had a panic attack and asked to go back to car as I could not stay there even though I found the place really beautiful in the beginning. It was later that I made the connection to the place and the PL event. I think this is why for the most part we don't remember our PL in general as it protects us from harmful mental and emotional pain that would otherwise get in the way of the present life personality being lived out.

Later P.

Oddly, I actually did take Latin in high school. The words came easy, but the grammar really didn't. During my lifetime there I spoke vulgar Latin, not classical Latin.

Yeah I do think Latin and Romance languages are fairly easy (except for the grammar which is more complex than English's). I think all of the Romance languages are beautiful in their own ways but none of them are as beautiful as Latin itself. However I personally don't care for Classical Latin or Vulgar Latin (and especially not Vulgar Latin) nearly as much as I do for Ecclesiastical Latin.

I have a passion for languages, so I don't know whether that passion sort of clouds my intuition but I feel drawn to several: English (my first foreign language), Italian (it's just so beautiful) and Japanese (I feel drawn to Japanese culture in general).
 
A lot. French, German, Russian, Serbian(and related languages), Albanian and perhaps Baltic languages too. I don’t know how to speak them in this life(apart from French and German) but hearing them gives comfort. I would put Japanese and Korean but idk if it’s just because of globalisation or something with anime and KPOP.

For me it's English with American accent , it is also my first foreign language and I was used to speak or read English as I worked as sale and export assistant. Since my first past life regression (I found that I was born in New Jersey) I watch only movies with the English original version. Even if I am doing something else in the house there's CNN on the TV just to hear the sound of American English. I do the same with the radio listening to WMID on the internet just to hear oldies and the voice that is comfortable for my soul.
 
Hi Emma,

I was born in the early 50s and have lived in the U.S. my entire life. I have lived most of my life in the South, but did live for a time in West NY. So, I don't have a lot of specific familiarity with the New Jersey area, but definitely have a lot of memories from the era in question.

Anyhow, let me know if I can be of any assistance in regard to memories involving this past life. I basically grew up during the Vietnam war. I was in the draft lottery that was put in place towards the end of the war (but my birthdate was pulled towards the end of the lottery, so I didn't have to go). Anyhow, it is an era that I remember pretty well, though it is now very long ago.

Cordially,
S&S
 
For me, English with a British accent has always been such a language. I like its sound, phonetics and vocabulary. And I started learning English when I was only 6 years old, although there is absolutely no family member in my family who knows English.

I still make mistakes sometimes, but I truly enjoy learning this language. I think I could live forever in England and speak English every day haha

Hi Ksenia, I can tell you that your English is very good, believe me, I am French 😂! I have always felt drawn to american English and absolutely not the British accent.
I have just started to learn Russian because I recently found out another past life in Russia in the 18th/19th century as a Don Cossack who died in 1812 ! I like the sound of the language and listening to old cossack songs. I could not say that I have always been drawn to it because I haven't really heard Russian before.

Thank you! And your experience sounds pretty interesting! 😊

Despite the fact that I grew up in a Russian family all my life and have been speaking Russian since birth, I still make a lot of mistakes in my 20s, which people around me normally don’t make. I am a literate person and I study well, read lots of books. It is difficult to explain why in my 20s it is difficult for me to learn my native language, but at the same time being really drawn to English.

The same situation, though I speak (and write) my native language perfectly. But I don't like it, as well as I don't feel connected to my country. Perhaps, we are just a little uncomfortable in our homeland...
 
I don't know if it's all pl related or not, but I like many languages (English, French, Russian, Spanish, Italian…). However, it was always Latin which I found most fascinating and which I felt most attracted to.
Over the years I also realized how much I like and appreciate German, my native language. Can’t judge about the sound of it, but it’s great for writing, very wordy and creative. So, when asked about my favorite languages by a friend, I said Latin and German, much to their surprise.
 
For some reason, I prefer English. Like it better for writing, I sometimes even THINK in English (actually, most of the time when I just "let my thoughts wander"). German has a somewhat "rickety" sound to my ears when I have heard a lot of English.
German? Only when the text is at least 200 years old. Or Baroque German. Or Medieval German. Those sound nice.
OK, there are some puns that only work in German.
Other than this French, Italian, Spanish (my read-only languages, in French I understand most, as I had it in school)
Latin, (Ancient) Greek, Sanskrit, Ancient Egyptian. Even if I know only a couple words in most of these, if anything at all.
Not necessarily PL-related, but could be. Like with most things.
 
Chinese. OMG Chinese. And Japanese. I know for sure one of my past lives was Japanese, and I suspect the life in which I met my soulmate was in medieval China.

I also just enjoy learning languages for the sake of learning languages, but those two speak to me on a level that goes beyond intellectual.
 
Certainly! I'm studying too many (Japanese, Latin, French, plus the languages I already speak) atm to adopt either of these, but I have always felt really comfortable listening to television and music that's in Hebrew or Yiddish, despite not being at all Jewish. I was pretty surprised to find out that the individual who is my suspected past life was in fact Jewish.
