A Korean will find it easier to learn Chinese than German, and a German will find it easier to learn English than Chinese. You can't make a rank of absolute difficulty, because it is too relative to your native language.

[@llooo5666]

true

[@matheuso8686]

that's what they said, congratulations.

[@landsgevaer]

That doesn't mean it is impossible. It just won't be the same for everyone individually, but you could still make an average ranking based on features of the language. Like, having seven genders makes a language more difficult to learn than having one; having 30 tonic vowels makes it more difficult than having 5 atonic ones. Having many homonyms makes it more difficult than having few. Etc. Your argument is almost like "we can't say a cake is more delicious than poo, because for people who like eating poo the preference is different."

[@rhezer]

It's easier to learn English for a Chinese speaker than learn Chinese for an English speaker. Even Chinese find hard to remember all the kanjis

Not necessarily, Korean grammar is quite different from Chinese, and plus Korean isn't a tonal language

The brazilian girl almost pronounced the hungarian sentence perfectly :) And yes every sound is pronounced as you see in the alphabet (that's why we have 'dzs' in the alphabet which is the J sound in Johnny, or the 'cs' which is the ch sound of choke), but besides this you need to learn 17-34 cases (in reality it's just 18).

[@csongortunde3468]

Furcsa is, pedig azt mondja, egyáltalán nem ismeri a nyelvet. Ahhoz képest tényleg az "s" kivételével tökéletes volt.

[@blanska]

Whenever I hear ppl say that Hungarian has lots of cases it sounds very scary. Don't get me wrong, I would not learn it as a second language, it seems very complicated to learn. But as a Hungarian, I just think of these "cases" as suffixes that mean different things. It's like prespositions in English, but we just put it at the end of the word. Same goes for Turkish :D All of a sudden it doesn't sound that scary and it might be closer to the Hungarian way of thinking. (Unless I'm the only person who thinks about it this way xDDD)

About Hungarian: 1) it's mostly phonetic and gender-neutral. 2) it's loaded with logical compound words like German and idioms like Chinese. 3) The grammar is very similar to Korean, e.g. learning cases and suffixes from one language to the other is quite easy.

[@arjay9745]

The idea that Hungarian is hard is a complete myth. It's actually one of the easier ones with very, very little stuff to memorise just because. It's highly logical, as well, so it's mostly just learn the root words, learn the rules, and go. People only THINK it's hard because it's so different.

[@sther9608]

I don't think the grammar is too similar to Korean. Maybe in how the suffixes as grammatic blocks work, but the purpose of the suffixes are so different. Not to mention how hungarian can add waaaay more suffixes to a word than korean usually does.

[@brozjoszip6401]

​@@arjay9745 yes, Hungarian is an 'easy' language like you say. The only weird thing is in the reality nobody is able to speak Hungarian without any Grammar mistake. Just watch carefully, if you talk to someone for 10 minutes they make like 5 Grammar mistakes. Most Hungarians start a sentence but 3 seconds later the way they finish the sentence is literally not correct at all.

As a Brazilian living in Poland. I would say that Polish is a bit difficult, but is totally possible to learn 😅 A pergunta em polonês era: Você pode ler isso?

[@ourdan14]

As person from Poland I also think that Polish is difficult even for us. Of course we communicate with each other fluently and use a lot of idioms, slang and abbreviations but I would say that most of conversations we have on a daily basis are far from gramatically correct. I mean we use conjugations and declinations immaculately but we suck at sentence order, whether to write CH or H, Ó or U. As Polyglot knowing 5 languages I can say that indeed Polish is the hardest one, its hard to judge it objectively but I see when I learn other languages how many things simply don't exist in them which exist in Polish. The last thing that sucks and makes it almost impossible (almost) to learn for foreigners even slavics is pronunciation, I know one man from Iran who mastered Polish in 3 years to degree when his accent is excellent but this is only one case. Other people who somehow managed to learn Polish do a lot of mistakes, don't pronounce correctly or dont conjugate or declinate properly.

[@mbuczyk]

True. You definitely don't want to hire someone to teach you polish just because they are the native speaker.

[@TheRPacer]

Coś w tym jest. Niejednokrotnie słyszę, że moja polszczyzna jest wysokiej próby. Prawdopodobnie to utrudnia mi opanowanie innych języków. Od razu widzę, że osiągnięcie choćby porównywalnej biegłości posługiwania się obcym językiem, to niewyobrażalnie trudne zadanie.

[@monczaopl]

Let’s not exaggerate, most Poles speak grammatically correct Polish and use correct sentence structure. Spelling mistakes happen for the pairs of CH/H, Ó/U, RZ/Ż etc. Because these are prounounced exactly the same, while historically each had a distinct sound. Yes, Polish is extremely difficult for someone who is not born into a Polish speaking family, but most Poles have no problem speaking it, or conjugating any of the words, even those used less frequently. I live in the USA and my 4 year old son speaks Polish really well and is already conjugating most of the words correctly and we’re not doing any formal studies; just conversations with me (mom is not a Polish speaker) and cartoons on TV.

Polish language on the other hand is super hard to learn with all the declinations.. :/ ( and pronunciation, like "Szcz", "y" and "e" , szczypiorek, wyjscie/wejscie etc.. ). I would say Hungarian and Polish are by far the hardest european languages to learn.

[@Lucas_Ficz]

I am a Brazilian of Hungarian descent (who is also a double citizen of both countries) and my veredict of Hungarian, after learning it for three years, is that the difficulty of Hungarian is 50% its word order, 30% the fact that most words can't be found in other languages and the remaining 20% agglutination and prefixes and suffixes. But it is a pretty logical language. If you grasp on the logic, its hardness melts down a bit. Then everything becomes a matter of adjusting your ears to having sentences basically said backwards compared to your native language, if you speak an Indo-european language. But to most people that think Hungarian is the hardest language in the world... Man. It's not. Chinese and Arabic are way harder.

Some hints from Poland. The lady from Serbia was right about "ż" it's the same as in Serbian. But we have another way to write "ż" - it's "rz" ("rz" in "przeczytać" should be read as "ż"). Pronunciation is the same, but sometimes we use "ż" and sometimes "rz". We even have words like "może" (maybe) and "morze" (sea). Pronunciation is the same, but the meaning is different. Good news is that Polish is phonetic language. Bad news is that it doesn't really help. :P

[@branislavmilosevic4289]

Ž is the letter in Latin but in Cyrillic is Ж. And in a Serbian language "može" (може) is a word of approval or statement that something can be done or that someone can do something. It is similar to words "can" and "may". And a word "maybe" in Serbian is a word "možda" (можда). Btw in Serbia we use both Latin and Cyrilc letters.

[@Sevard85]

Actually "może" in Polish is also one of form of word "móc" and can also be translated as "he/she/it may" or "he/she/it can". I'm starting to see why some people may find Polish complicated. :D

Strange. Im fluent in both Hungarian and Serbian. English was my first language. I don't think its easier than German. But yet again I just started learning German like a 6 months ago. Maybe there are loan words. Some I hear in Hungarian or Serbian. Mainly Serbian has lot of German words that are used in stuff related to machinery or something that you would use in day to day basis. Like auspuh (exhaust)on cars. Or the windshield on a car is sofershaibe. Or flex for a grinder. Kilner and you name it. I cant really name all of them from my head. But I do tend to spot some of them. As for Hungarian other than letters üö I cant remember similar words. If you could write them down so I can refresh my memory that would be good😅

[@Keira-lt5rh]

You mean, Hungarian words similar to German ones? (For others reading this comment, I also added the English translation 😉) In many cases we translated the longer, glued-together words word by word. For example Spiegel-ei - Tükör-tojás (even though it doesn't make sense if you think about it (means "mirror-egg", but is actually a fried egg)) Auf-zug - Fel-vonó (elevator, or up-puller) Bit different, but similar idea: Kranken-haus - Kór-ház (German is illpeople-house, Hungarian is illness-house, is actually hospital) Auf wieder-sehen - viszont látás+ra ("on again seeing", actually a formal goodbye) Schaden-freude - Kár-öröm (about which Germans really like to say that only they have this word in their language, English just stole it... We were a bit more creative when stealing it, we translated the 2 words first 😉) Similar in pronounciation: Kastanien - Gesztenye (chestnut) sparen - spórol (to save money) Tapete - tapéta Right now I can't think of more, but we keep finding these similar words with my german boyfriend, so I'm pretty sure there's much more 😄

[@BETOETE]

Interesting, as a native Spanish speaker, compared to English I found Spanish harder than English because the latter has no gender differences in nouns/adjektief, doen't change in conjugations and has no tildes (accent to be marked), in some ways Spanish is more similar to German.

I speak Chinese, English Spanish fluently and base understanding of Japanese and Italian. I did teach Chinese before and might be biased here, as I am native, but from some conversations I've had with students Chinese is not as difficult as a lot of people make it out to be. The thing is the barrier of entrance is high, with a lot of memorization, and a tone system, but there is really no grammar at all, and once you have a few thousand characters memorized, it's really just smooth sailing. A few thousand characters sounds like a lot, but most languages require 20k unique words to be fluent. And to give an example, if someone has no knowledge about cars they would have no idea what a radiator is, but if I say the same word in Chinese(散热器) a Chinese-speaking person knows nothing about cars would know that I am talking about the device that disperses heat in the car. 散:disperse, 热:heat, 器:device. And that is about how every word in Chinese is structured. So once someone gets the basic characters down they will rarely run into a word that they have no idea about even in very technical fields such as science and medicine.

this is so true! the first few weeks of mandarin were sooo hard and i thought it is so difficult! but once you get used to the tones it is really easy. just need to learn the words. not talking about writing the characters by hand tho xD i'm glad i can type pinyin into my smartphone and can get the correct hanzi that way xD i think japanese is waaay harder.

[@MrAstygmatyk]

It's the Chinese characters that make Chinese so daunting, not the pronunciation and not the relatively simple grammar. Probably it's most evident when compared to Vietnamese or Turkish, the two languages that adopted Latin alphabet. For the same reason even Russian is not the easiest language, even to other Slavic speakers whose languages use Latin alphabets. I suspect the writing system makes a great difference even to the Chinese. After all to memorize and copy a word or short sentence written in Latin script must be a piece of cake even for them as opposed to Latin-script user trying to copy and memorize a few "characters" in either Mandarin (or Arabic).

Hello, a little hint from a Polish person here 😊 The lady from Serbia was absolutely correct and the sound “ż” was what she thought it was 🙂 The sentence meant “ Can you read this?” I absolutely love how incredible you are and how beautifully you speak about learning languages and I can actually relate to quite a few of these things, even though I speak only one foreign language. To me, German is way easier than French. my Hungarian partner who speaks fluently French and English (with a bit of German in his pocket) could possibly agree 😉 he did tell me that French was incredibly difficult for him to learn.

[@aneletty7517]

As a Hungarian myself (to be more precise Hungarian Japanese half) i always find it surprising when ppl from other countries considers Hungarian to be one of the hardest language to speak. It is indeed true that here in Europe none of the other languages sounds similar to it (we feel special and proud about it too haha), although we share some words that sounds similar in German and English too, and bit of Finnish as well, but the reason i would still consider it easy overall is that we really almost always read the letters as its being written, just like Japanese when the words are converted into alphabets, "Rōmajis". So yeah at 04:12 the Brazilian girl almost read the Hungarian sentence fully correctly, with only a tiny mistake at the end inside the word "olvasni". In Hungarian we pronounce "s" as "sh" in English.

[@sther9608]

How difficult a language is depends on what you compare it to. From a germanic, romance or slavic perspective, it is hard - you need to learn an entirely different logic for it. I have the same problem, but backwards - i was as of yet unable to familiarize myself with the concept of grammatic gender, so to speak most of those languages i mentioned well seem really hard to me. English was not too easy either, but easier (i think - you judge how comprehensive this comment is), and i had some success in others, but those i would benefit from the most, i'm quite frankly shot.

[@poycixyz4614]

As a Hungarian I'd like to clarify *YES, WE DO* read as we write! Your pronunciation was actually almost perfect, except for the s which makes a /ʃ/ or [sh] sound. Well, that, and you had a pretty thick accent, but that's all. In fact, out of all the languages I've encountered so far, the ones that "read as they write" always turn out to be frauds. "Oh yeah, sure, we pronounce everything the way it's written, except for this and this and this and this..." In Hungarian, the only exceptions are very recent loanwords (like, haven't-even-entered-official-dictionaries recent). And all the older ones got re-spelled: Chauffeur from french became "sofőr" or /ʃoføːr/. Radio from english became "rádió" or /raːdioː/. Speis(ekammer) became "spájz" or /ʃpaːjz/. Now, someone a bit more familiar with languages grammar might point out that there's a huge amount of vowel and consonant rules which relate to pronunciation, but that number is deceptively high. What it boils down to, is stuff like the hiatus rule, where two vowels next to eachother are easier to pronounce with a /j/ inserted in, like this: eeya instead of: ee-a. And for consonants it's stuff like merging. So a "t" and a "s" merge to for a /t̠ʃʼ/ which in the IPA is literally just written as those two sounds next to eachother. And no, there are no exceptions to this. If you know what the Hungarian alphabet sounds like, you can read any word correctly. There's not even stress to worry about, because it is always on the first syllable. What you really have to worry about is just not having an accent and then you'll sound 100% Hungarian in no time. I've never seen a language that is as true to it's spelling as my own, even when I try to view it from an objective outside view. Kinda makes you wonder why that is... why do humans like to write everything unlike it's said? Anyways, if there *is* a language that is this true to it's spelling, please do let me know, I really want to find one.

Serbo-Croatian language is 100% true to it's spelling, there are no exceptions. You don't need to spell it, it is prononunced exactly as it is written.

[@ivanovichdelfin8797]

El idioma español es conocido por ello. La única excepción es que la "h" se pronuncia como una "y/ll" en algunos acentos en la sílaba "hie" (como en palabras como hierba, hielo...) y en la sílaba "hue", la h se pronuncia como una "g" o "w" (como en hueso, cacahuete...). Otra excepción es que la "x" acaba tornándose a una "s" cuando de habla rápido o al comienzo de una palabra, porque cuesta pronunciarla. El resto de excepciones son palabras prestadas, en el que hay una influencia clara de otros idiomas (la mayoría de estas suelen ser marcas o nombres de lugares). Palabras como México, Sáhara, pizza...

[@tovarishcheleonora8542]

If you use IPA in your text then please do not write the english sh in [ ] because that's very similar to how // works. It's better to use quotation marks or write it as . Also your /t̠ʃʼ/ is a completely different sound from what Hungarian has, which is /tʃ/. Well, Hungarian does have exceptions like as how you would say "lásd" as "lázsd" instead. Or the "ch" in the "tech" syllable, "pszicho" syllable and the "pech" word, but these 3 word are easy to memorize and won't change in any word that you will see them inserted at. And the thing i said about "lásd" are just easy consonant rules for easier pronunciation. Also, you should look at Indonesian for a language that spells as it speaks. But they have 2 exceptions 1) their "e" with would sound as /ɛ/ (hungarian e), /e/ (short é), /ə/ (basicly an ö or the "a" from "about"); 2) the word-final "k" always a glottal stop /ʔ/.

The fact how difficult a language is to learn depends on the language(s) the learner has as his/her mother tongue. I am Finnish person (speak Finnish as my mother tongue) and I also speak English, Danish and Swedish fluently. I have also studied the basics of Spanish, French and Arabic and for me Arabic was like million times easier to learn than French. Arabic has structural similarities with Finnish where as French and Finnish have basicly NOTHING in common. Lately I have been studying some Korean on my own and again, since it has similarities in structure and pronouciation (with Finnish) it has been MUCH easier than French, which so far has been the most difficult language for me to learn.

The original hungarian language used runeletters, which means the sentence you had to read looks like if you would see some ancient mayan language. And that is not the hardest part of the language. The hungarian language uses 1000 completely verbs for the word: "move" Most language doesn´t even have 1000 verbs. The hungarian language has nearly 1 Million words. You can have a basic understanding and a capability of speaking on a very low level of hungarian, but for non natives it is almost impossible to encounter the deepness of this beautiful, unique language.

Then, I've been told, that for Slavic people, Hungarian is easier than Finnish or Estonian, cause it has many Slavic words (but I've never tried to learn it, it's just what I've heard). Same language group, but not mutually understandable (Finnish and Estonian are very similar, but I can't understand anything of Hungarian).

Also many Hungarian words are not loanwords vast amounts have no non origin whatsoever from any language except khanty and mansi from proto-Uralic kéz and käsi - hand Agy / Aivot this means brain. Mozek Mozak Мозок Мозг all translation of brain in variety of Slavic languages. Does Ady ( AHH- dy) sound like Mozek to you?

I studied Finnish for 5,5 years and had also two years of Hungarian as additional language, and to me Finnish is easier - both in pronouciation and word order. Hungarian has more strange vovels, although in general I didn't have many problems with that, but noticed that some of my friends did; Finnish front vovels are the only difficulty for us Polish, but in general it's very easy to pronounce and the word order in sentences is much more intuitive and similar to Polish, while Hungarian has sometimes strange word order. In terms of vocabulary, I guess they are similar. It's also worth adding that Finnish grammar is very regular and has very little exceptions, while Estonian is much more irregular (I know it from friends who chose Estonian instead of Hungarian as additional language). Cannot say how regular or not Hungarian is, though.

Difficulty definitively depends on which languages you already know. My mother tongue is Italian. The first foreign language I learnt was French, which is quite challenging grammatically but similar to Italian. German was far more difficult to learn. Then English came and I found it quite easy (having some similarities to German and other Latin languages). I never took a single Spanish lesson but knowing the other languages it is frankly quite easy, for instance, when I travel to Spain, I can easily communicate in simple situations. I am now learning Russian and that's on a whole new level. Frankly, I have been struggling for the last 2 years and am still at A1-A2 level.

[@incaseofimportantnegotiations]

nah japanese is probably the worst of them all difficulty depends first on the age of the language so recently reformed languages are the easiest like russian and deutsch all rules almost no exceptions read literally as it is written just memorize the vocabulary and pick your poison betwen yes sentence order and no sentence order though not all reforms are done correctly, hangul is not very good the second factor is how that language was created so english being a french dialect of german, japanese being mixed with chinese 27 different times makes them really terrible languages. in english it's pure memorization and zero rules zero structure + obsessiveness with fake sounds. that's why english natives have troubles with simple russian - they focus on inventing fake vovels that do not exist in russian just to mimic one minor regional accent, instead of learning the language itself as it is written. and japanese basically doesn't have a writing system, it's half abiguida half pictograms, and everything has 27 different readings and it didn't get rid of counters (no one says murder of crows anymore, but japan does) and then it has a separate abiguida and then any moment they can start ignoring the writing system altogether and just use pictograms they think are cool and write an unrelated pronunciation in furigana chinese was reformed recently so it is logical to read only maybe hard to pronounce correctly. pictograms tho are still the worst way to write a language. and every single language has a fake transliteration to english. it's either done by english speakers and is wrong, or it's done by natives who don't care about english and use the letter for their own needs see pinyin

For the most part, Polish only _looks_ like it's so extremely consonantal, because it uses many digraphs - 2 letters that are, however, pronounced as a single sound; yes, Polish does feature consonant clusters quite often, but doesn't really stand out among Slavic languages in this regard. If you want to meet a Slavic language that really uses long consonant clusters quite often and each of those consonants is pronounced as a single sound, I'd recommend Czech, my native language, which is often referred to as the most consonantal Slavic language out there (see words like "skrz", "mrtvý", "prst", "zvlhčit", "čtvrtina", "srst", "mdlý", or "vývrtka").

It all depends where you’re born and raised, how hard a given language is, and also whether you have bi/multilingual parents and whether they encouraged linguistic diversity day-to-day. As a Brit brought up in a monolingual household, I speak 5 other languages more or less fluently (French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, German - learned in that order), and even although English isn’t a Romance/Latin language there is tons of linguistic overlap in terms of vocabulary (and, indeed, grammatical structure) with the Latin languages. Ironically, I had more difficulty with German than _any_ of the Latin languages, and German is supposedly linguistically closer to English! Not sure exactly why I found it trickier, but I did. One thing I _did_ clearly notice was how much easier and quicker it becomes to learn a third and fourth language after the second, if the languages are linguistic cousins. So, once French was properly under the belt after a good 5 years, Spanish was done in about 4, Italian 3 etc. What’s _really_ impressive to me is being European, for example, and learning something like Korean to fluency, particularly if you’re not actually living there.

Different languages are constructed in different ways, so they work differently, so the grammar is going to be a bit different, because different constructions wouldn’t sound right in different languages, tho the main 4 cases are usually the same in almost all languages - each language needs to have certain endings and certain constructions for it to sound right! German grammar isn’t that different from English / Dutch grammar etc, they have very similar constructions and endings! For example, I go = ich gehe (I / ich are in nominative aka the subject’s case because I the subject am the one that goes aka the one performing the action) while me = mich (accusative aka the case of the direct object, like when saying, tell me the truth, instead of saying tell I the truth) and, dative would be to me in English and mir in German (the case that implies that someone is given to the subject, like, give me the glass / give the glass to me) and, genitive always implies possession and usually has an s at the end of the noun in most Germanic languages (mein / meine etc = my) and, almost all languages have these 4 cases, so they are the standard cases that are required for the sentences to sound right, which is why one says ‘you tell me’ and not ‘you tell I’ because ‘you tell I the truth’ wouldn’t sound right, so the case of the direct object must be used here, which is referred to as the accusative case, so me / us and mich / uns etc are the accusative forms! It’s very easy to understand how the cases work, and technically all languages have them, and even English still has vestiges of the case system, since it still uses me / us etc for pronouns, as it wouldn’t sound right without these different forms!

[@FrozenMermaid666]

Here’s the correct rankings for the easiest languages, which include category 1 to category 3 languages... 1. English / Dutch / Norwegian (the easiest languages ever created and the easiest category 1 languages for sure, can be learnt super fast, I got to an advanced level in Dutch in about 3 months as the words are so easy to learn and memorize, very pretty and memorable and distinctive words, and am close to an advanced level in Norwegian, and am writer level in English, and by the way, Modern English was actually designed to be the easiest language ever that’s super easy to learn and use on purpose, so that it could easily become an universal language, and, these three languages are all so easy to read / type / use etc, with easy soft pronunciation and very light spelling, a language cannot get any easier than that) 2. Middle English / Middle Dutch / Middle Norwegian / Limburgish / Afrikaans / most other languages that are based on Dutch that are referred to as ‘dialects’ etc (almost as easy as the modern versions, and Afrikaans is like simplified Dutch in a way, but somehow it is not as easy to read and pronounce as actual Dutch, and the other languages based on Dutch aren’t as easy to read as Standard Dutch either) 3. Italian / Esperanto / Galician / Catalan / Gallo / Swedish / Norn / Danish / Occitan / Middle Danish / Latin / Elfdalian / Spanish / Aranese / Portuguese / the other Italian-based languages (all category 1 languages that are almost as easy as English / Dutch / Norwegian) 4. German / Luxembourgish / Austrian German / Alemanic / Swiss German / Middle German / Old German / French / Guernsey / Walloon / Burgundian / West-Vlaamse Dutch-based language / Breton / Cornish / Welsh / Manx (also category 1 languages, but a bit less easy than the the other category 1 languages, French definitely has a spelling that is closer to the spelling of a category 2 language, with many words that have multiple types of accents, so French words need to be seen more times to memorize the correct spelling for each word, so even though the words themselves are easy to learn, it takes more repetition to remember the exact correct spelling, and, these 4 Celtic languages are very easy to learn and memorize, almost as easy as English, but they have an extra feature called mutations, that only Celtic languages have, tho it’s easy to get used to it, even as a beginner, so mutations are the only reason why I grouped them with German and French, but their spelling is actually way easier than French and Spanish spelling, to be honest, and German is easy, especially if one learns Dutch first, because Dutch is way easier to learn than German and it has the same word order, so I found that learning German has become super easy once I got to an advanced level in Dutch, but German is not as easy to read as English and Dutch as it has more consonant clusters and many words with umlauts) 5. Old Norse / Faroese / Greenlandic Norse / Icelandic / East Norse / Gothic / Slovene / Old Dutch / Old Swedish / Old Danish / Old Norwegian / Proto Norse / Proto Germanic etc (easiest category 2 languages, which are closer to a category 1 language than they are to the other category 2 languages on the language difficulty spectrum, and only the spelling at first sight is the spelling of a category 2 language because they have different letters and many words with accents, but in truth, they are as easy to learn and get used to as a category 1 language, I find Old Norse words as easy to memorize as Dutch words, they are equally pretty and distinctive, and it didn’t take long for me to get used to the new letters and to get used to the spelling of Old Norse, even though I am only upper beginner level in Old Norse and Icelandic at the moment, so it’s actually super easy, and Faroese is like simplified Old Norse, basically, but it’s not as easy to learn as Old Norse, only because there aren’t as many resources and lyrics etc for learning Faroese as there are for learning Old Norse) 6. Hungarian / Old English (Hungarian is actually a category 2 language, almost as easy as Old Norse, the pronunciation is super easy, the words are easy to remember and learn, only the spelling is not as easy as that of English / Dutch / Norwegian etc, because Hungarian has lots of words with accents and umlauts, and Old English is almost as easy as Old Norse, but it’s not as easy to read as Old Norse tho) 7. Finnish & Estonian (the pronunciation is actually very easy, the words can be remembered and learnt relatively fast, but they also have lots of words with umlauts and even double umlauts, so they need more repetition, to remember the exact spelling for each word, so they are the least easy category 2 languages) 8. Irish & Scottish Gaelic (these two are a category 3 language, definitely the hardest languages I’m learning, the spelling is quite difficult, a real challenge, with multiple vowels and vowel clusters, so it takes more time to get used to the spelling and to remember the exact spelling of each word, even though the words themselves are usually easy to learn, and the pronunciation is also easy) 9. Yiddish is a category 3 (or even a category 4) language due to the script, and even when written with normal letters, it’s not as easy to read as normal German, though the pronunciation is easy and the words themselves are easy to learn because they’re based on German)

As the two young ladies said learning a language and it's complexity or difficulty has a lot to do with which language is your mother tongue and are the other languages similar or very distant to your mother tongue. Another key point is the age one starts learning a foreign language, I think the ideal time frame is somewhere between 10--- 17 years old. As after 18 or 20 it becomes more challenging as our brains struggle more with unfamiliar sounds, grammar, syntax, etc. Yes, in Mandarin tones are very important, but it's a common misconception that if you use the wrong tone you will completely say the wrong thing and offend people. That's not often the case, because if you have a decent working knowledge of it, a Mandarin speaker will understand what you are saying based on context, even if every tone isn't 100% accurate. About Hungarian yes, it's a rather unique language that doesn't fit neatly into other Indo-European languages. It's believed that the Hungarian's ancestor came from Central Asia way, way back, but then they slowly migrated into Eastern Europe. So while it does have Central Asian roots it is in a system all on it's own. But it does have some commonalities with Asian languages, e.g. surname before given name, specific familial descriptors rather than generic ones like most European languages. As well as some similarities in idiomatic expressions. I find Korean quite unlike other East Asian languages as it seems more insular that Japanese and Mandarin and they use both Hangul and Chinese characters, which is confusing. I find Japanese pronunciation and speaking easy, but with hiragana, katakana and kanji writing is challenging Since watching more K-dramas I notice that they do have a fair few loan words from Mandarin, Japanese and even some from Russian. Languages where one has to learn without a written system and/or a phonetic system seem much more challenging than ones that do.

As a Hungarian I only truly started to understand that our language must have some Asian roots is when I spent a few years in England and there I met a number of Korean and Chinese speaking people. We would always tell each other about our languages and explain how we say things. I very quickly realized that even though the vocabulary and the sounds are different in these languages, the logic in sentence structure, in numbering etc. are very similar. Not to mention that Hungary still uses the Eastern name order (surname first, first name second), we also write the date the same way Asian countries do: Year/Month/Day. I think these are due to the way of thinking that is induced by the language itself. I think today's Hungarian is full of other words from other countries. We have words from German, Slavic languages and Turkish. Still the language seems to be alive and well. :)

As a hungarian person I kinda feel you. It was my childhood dream to become a polyglot. Now I'm sort of a failed one. Although I speak russian, german and english fluently (c1 ger + eng, ~b2 rus) I still struggle with them, pretty much because I constantly try to build on secondary knowledge. In other words... Hungarian is so distinct from other languages that if I don't remember something in german or see it for the first time, I MUST rely on my english, which is not my mother tongue. So it is extremely difficult. EDIT: Learning english was living horror to me. Even turkish, filippino, finnish or japaneae would have been easier. They're much closer to the structure of hungarian.

[@snakewatch5468]

Arabic also has Singular, Plural and Dual for two people

[@wardachrouaa7281]

I disagree that Arabic has 'a lot of weird throat sounds'. A lot of European languages actually use quite similar sounds. German and Dutch have the خ sound (German 'machen' or Dutch 'zeggen'). The ح sound is something every person wearing glasses makes when cleaning his glasses with his breath before wiping them. And the ء is being used without being written, like in Dutch 'beamte' (beءamte), or in the English 'oh-oh' (ءohءoh). I think only the ع is a completly new sound for most people. But Arabic pronounciation is not just difficult because it has this one strange letter, but also because it has a lot of 'in between' sounds. So between d and z there are three other sounds: dh ض, zhظ and dzذ, for which you really need to train the ear, and the lips and tongue, to hear and pronounce the difference. Even many Arabs don't pronounce things correctly in Modern Arabic because they most often pronounce it like their dialect Arabic, and the dialects have lost some letters or mispronounce them (according to Fusha rules). Moroccons for example cannot pronounce 'نظارة' (nazhara) correctly, they say نضارة (nadhara). And Egyptians can't say جمل (jamal), they say gamal.

Polyglots have a good compass on the map of languages and can address languages on a professional way even if they dont speak it. It is a profession, knowing 6 languages and absolutely not knowing a thing about some languages on your own continent does not necessarily qualify as a polyglot. Lets mention Finnish as it is relating to Hungarian and Estonian they are one of a kind and requires a mind that is set up similarly . I am learning Finnish and i can tell you that numerous thing do connect and even more can if you interchange a few vowels that Finnish uses instead. It is comfortable to learn Finnish if you are Hungarian. In the beginning the learning curve is steep, but here and there you can have a slack, as items similar or structured in a common way.

[@noseboop4354]

Yup, Korean and Japanese have extremely similar grammar and syntax, as well as the honorifics and particle systems. Native words are different, but the chinese loan words are similar and comprise about 50% of the vocabulary, so for a native Korean speaker Japanese is probably the easiest language to learn, and vice-versa, but anyone not native Korean or Japanese will indeed have a very hard time learning either of these two languages due to how different and unique they are.

[@kpt002]

I am a Finnish person (also speak English, Danish and Swedish fluently) and I have studied the basics of Spanish, French and Arabic and now been studying some Korean on my own since the pandemic. For me Arabic and Korean have both been MUCH easier to learn than French. Both of those languages have similarities with Finnish in structure and pronounciation is not that far either where as French has basicly NOTHING in common with Finnish. So the difficulty of the language depends fully on those languages you speak as your mother tongue (or on a similar level of fluency..)
