Arabic got the vote because it is very flowing, while the other languages are very blocky.

I chose other because I love Hebrew.
But Arabic is a close second and those are the two most beautiful scripts. Nothing else can even come close.

Chinese, it can be written in any style, block or flowing. But Arabic will come a close second though, with its flowing style.

If we're going for language, I'd go with Finnish, German, Arabic, or Russian...but if we're going for symbols, probably Arabic/Russian.

Pig Latin. BTW, how come English isn't a choice in the poll?

New Times Roman would be English.

Arabic because of it's flowing style, and possibly Egyptian(old Egyptian).
My languages(which I choose, don't know all of them):
Arabic
Farsi
Egyptian
Runic(only for the symbols:book:)
Old Greek
:balloon2:
Egyptian Hieroglyphics. :)
Agreed, or maybe Bartrixian :2thumbsup:

I think the confusion has arisen in whether you mean the Latin alphabet or the font Times New Roman ala Microsoft Word. For example: Copperplate script, Gothic script or Celtic script (which are both extremely beautiful) are fonts of the Latin alphabet, but aren't Times New Roman.
As such, I've voted other because I think Copperplate (flows beautifully), Gothic (can be very elaborate) and Celtic (looks extraoridarily serene - Welsh written in this style looks fab) styled writing are all equally lovely.
IMO Arabic looks ugly and incomprehensible: it's just horizontal lines with swiggles and dots. The same goes for pictographic alphabets, they're all utterly incomprehensible; Oriental ones look like random lines... I probably only think they're ugly because I can't read them though.

Would Egyptian mean hieroglyphs or the newer alphabet-using Egyptian?
Anyhow, voted Chinese.

I've voted arabic, but that's because I thought you meant the style which writers use, I personally think the arabic writers have a very profound way of describing life and it's assets using a lot of funny comparisons.
As for jsut how the individual letters look, Arabic, rune both are nice enough.

I like Japanese, but old Myan symbols are pretty sweet to look at and so is Klingon :klingon:.

I think the body language of a naked woman is the most beautiful written language :grin:
