ask them how they think the language sounds
its socially acceptable to say a language sounds ugly, harsh, beautiful, etc
however people dont realize what this actually says about them
no language is inherently harsh nor beautiful
and the idea that german is harsh or french is beautiful are based off of deeply ingrained stereotypes... about the nations themselves, not the languages
this will help you figure out what biases people have about certain nations

here is the 8th axiom

8. Bias towards/against a language or dialect stands in for bias towards/against its speakers.
