What's the most beautiful script?

[GaeilgeGirl]

I learned some Bengali in college, and I think it's lovely.  It's a bit more rounded than Hindi.  I wish I had a good picture to post!  I used to be able to write my name in it, but it's been years and I'm very out of practice.
Arabic is also lovely.  I can see why Arabic calligraphy is used as decoration.

I've always thought Arabic script had an interesting sort of mysterious look to it.

I voted Latin, but now that I look at it, I think Arabic is the most beautiful script of all. It has really graceful and sensual lines and it's beautiful to look at, even if I don't understand it. The Chinese and the Japanese scripts come a close second and third.

I really like Arabic. It looks like a very old language but it looks very cool. Now as far as beautiful, I think that the Chinese scripts are the best. They look really good.

[Northea]

I've always found Sanksrit very beautiful, so I voted for it.

There was no Georgian language on the list, but that's another one of my favorites, aesthetics-wise. I'm surprised it hasn't even been mentioned yet.

I am sure all languages look beautiful to those who love the language. For me, the Arabic script is fascinating. It is so flexible and fluid. It can be written to form pictures, so beautifully.

Easter Island had it's own unique writing style but as yet it hasn't been deciphered. It does resemble hieroglyphs even though there isn't a connection between the two.

[Γειά σος]

I personally believe the Greek Alphabet is the most beautiful. The script is so pretty and fluid looking. I just find it extremely aesthetically pleasing. I am learning modern Greek as well. Here are some things in Greek:

Γειά σας. Πώς είσαι;

Είμαι καλά, ευχαριστώ πολύ. Κι εσύ;

Έτσι κι έτσι. Αυτή είναι η μητέρα μου.

Χάρηκα για τη γνωριμία.

Κι εγώ. Τα ξαναλέμε!

Αντιο! Τα λέμε αργότερα!

I appreciate Hangul quite a bit. Looking at it feels really comfortable for some reason. But, I don't think I'd use the word beautiful. Maybe sensible? I'll agree with a few others here that the Japanese and Chinese scripts better fit the beauty description.

[Kuro]

Japanese and Greek.

[Boriana]

Interesting poll! I don't speak Arabic and I even don't know the letters, but I think it has the most beaitiful script.

[alvinirawan7]

I'd say Chinese. The words are beautifully constructed, and Chinese calligraphy 书法 (shu1fa3) is even more beautiful.

I heard even in Korea they also use the traditional Chinese character, don't know whether it's true or not though

Malayalam, or any other Dravidian script.

ഇന്ത്യ എന്ന ഭാരതം. ഹിന്ദുസ്ഥാൻ എന്നും ഇത് അറിയപ്പെടുന്നുവെങ്കിലും ഈ പദം ഇന്ത്യൻ യൂണിയനു പുറമെ പാകിസ്താനെയും ബംഗ്ലാദേശിനെയും കൂടി ഉൾക്കൊള്ളുന്നതാണ്. ന്യൂഡൽഹിയാണ്‌ ഇന്ത്യയുടെ തലസ്ഥാനം .

looks nice, indeed.

And here's the next clue for participants of the Linguaholic Discord Quiz. By now, you should know what is the most beautiful script according to Linguaholic users. It is now time for you to learn a sentence in that language. Find out what this means and you will know how to proceed:

I find the Filipino Baybayin script, the Japanese and the Georgian Scripts truly beautiful. The Baybayin script is a mixture of Indian, Malaysian and Indonesian influences and you can really see an obvious resemblance of it to Sanskrit, Balinese and Malay scripts. Very poetic and stylish. 

The Japanese script is equally fascinating because even if most of its characters are derived from Chinese characters, it does have its unique look and style. The tategaki format is also influenced by the Chinese system. Still, it evokes a certain personality that's artful and fun.

And the Georgian scripts. Ahh... I'm really drawn to its unique character. The scripts do express a regal vibe but there's an intriguing and mysterious air in each and every letter or font. Something that makes the Georgian scripts look like a work of art. 

I'm sure there's a lot more! But these three look interesting, form and aesthetic-wise.

Lol guys make way to Tamil .. the oldest and the first language in the world

I really like Rongo Rongo in a zany, off-the-wall way.

[PlanetOfSound]

I came across this site. It looks great! I can't wait to browse through it.

Arabic is lovely, as is Tibetan, but I'm would recommend everyone have a at Burmese. It flows like Tolkien's Elvish...so many swoops and swirls that, unless you know the language, you can't tell one characters from the next.

I don’t want to seem biased but since I’ve been studying a lot of languages such as: mandarin, Korean, Russian, Arabic, English and Spanish I’ve noticed that there is one language that stands out to me, It is Arabic
