Easiest and hardest language you've learned or attempted to learn?
What are the easiest and hardest languages you've learned or at least attempted to learn?
For me the easiest would be English (My native tongue, obviously.), and Spanish. German is definitely the hardest. Dat grammar -blam!-s me up so badly. I remember French being somewhere in the middle. Not easy but not hard.
You, Flood?

Discounting native tongue of english which is obviously the easiest for me... French would be the easiest I think, I studied french from 5 years old until 16. I can get along passably in french and I can generally understand most things like French videos/music/books but occasionally more complex vocabulary trips me up. Japanese would be the next easiest, once I'd learned the letters (Hiragana, Katakana and the basic Kanji) the structure of the language is very simple and not too ambiguous, it's also pretty formal so there isn't an ungodly amount of colloquialisms to learn like with french or english. It was a tricky few years to really get on top of the structuring and the core of the language/grammar but now it's quite easy and simple to learn new words through songs/films/anime/books. Just Dat Kanji doe... still -blam!-s me up. Spanish gets the vote for hardest because I was having french and spanish lessons simultaneously and if you've ever done that... it's very confusing... I mixed up so much of both of them at one point that I just wrote off spanish all together. However, if I hadn't been learning French and Spanish at the same time - Japanese would take the winner because of that bastarding Kanji. Did I mention I hate Kanji? I think I did...
