In the European language family or in Europe? If the former I've heard Latvian and Lithuanian is fucking difficult. If the latter I'd say Hungarian or Basque.
English
oh wait sorry i thought you asked "what is the only language that should exist?"
>>52701401
great insight good post
>>52702715
Basque is literally the language of aliens.
>>52702818
>A Basque noun is inflected in 17 different ways for case, multiplied by 4 ways for its definiteness and number. These first 68 forms are further modified based on other parts of the sentence, which in turn are inflected for the noun again. It's been estimated that at two levels of recursion, a Basque noun may have 458,683 inflected forms (Agirre et al, 1992).

No one knows where Indo-European languages came from.

over 95% of Finno-Ugric speakers live in EUROPE, can't say the same about IE-languages.

Indo-European:
Probably any Balto-Slavic language besides Bulgarian. Especially the Baltic languages.
Uralic:
Hungarian.
>>52718544
Not really.
Estonian is the least-complex of the mainstream Uralic languages.
>>52701401
>>52721793
Also Celtic languages are somewhat-difficult.

>>52712910
Swedish has 0 diphthongs and so does Russian, where are they getting all this from?
>>52719174
>t. non country and non existent language
>>52722267
>russian
>0 diphthongs
What?
Off the top of my head: "egg" - "jaitso" - there's a diphthong there.
>>52722267
Russian does have diphthongs if ะน is counted as a vowel instead of a consonant, which usually is.
>>52722542
That's just an aj and isn't considered a diphthong.Most Slavic languages lost their diphthongs before splitting up
>>52722542
Oh yeah, but I have never heard of it being considered a vowel, at most semi-vowel, but I personally don't like it
Armenian.
>>52723395
Accurate depiction of the Armenian alphabet.
>>52723720
i think this is better
>>52700143
If you're counting dead languages I'd say coptic. It was originally the name of what we now call gibberish.
>>52723395
Damn, haven't seen an Armenian flag for a long time.
>>52712910
>Danish has 32 vowels
That can't be real.
>>52725179
why not
>>52725312
Shit, I just looked it up. It's true, but only because most vowels have short and long variants.
>>52725377
there's also whether it has stod or not
>>52725419
Danish must be one of the worst languages for a foreigner to learn to pronounce.
>>52725506
it is probably not too bad
>>52702902
How did the Inquisition miss these obvious witches??

>>52712910
>Russian
>diphtongs
wat
>>52712910
The number of vowels for Estonian is wrong. It's 9 base vowels which have normal, long and ultra-long versions so it's basically 27 vowels.
Though I agree, Lithuanian is fucking hard.

Not when you look at other European languages like Basque, Icelandic, Latvian etc.
Nice trips though.
