Korean is most difficult language in the world
>>59790383
You dont know the spanish....
>>59790383
It's easy. I have acquired basic knowledge of it without much trouble.
A Korean lady told me that Korean was the easiest language in the world to learn and that the genius emperor had contructed the simplest alphabet on Earth that made it perfect as a universal language

Spanish conjugations are dumb.

>Spanish conjugations are dumb.
Literally gabe pronouns emphatic tones while at the same time gives you the information of "who" and "when".
Spanish conjugation is a gift to the earth.

Its Only character (hangeul)
>>59790383
Easier than Russian desu.
>>59790383
Hab, nigga?
The grammar is pretty easy to be honest. Logical, rule based, doesn't have too many exceptions, the word order is also rather strict so easier to memorize. Writing is super easy, pronounciation is a bit tricky at some places, vocabulary is difficult for a westerner because of the lack of lexical similarity, but overall I'd say 6/10

what does this mean
>>59790383
I guess Korean is the easiest language for Jpanese.
>>59790383
I am learning korean, it is really not that hard to learn, it is hard to memorize. Since you don't really use all those tenses in real life (I as a foreigner won't, for sure), I am learning those tenses that are used the most in everyday speech. Hangul is awesome, words are weird which is ok considering korean is my first asian language to learn, but pronunciation is abysmal for me
>>59794399
because basically the grammar is the same.
You can almost translate word by word.
>>59795162
Yeah, you just learn a few new tenses and the vocabulary and that is it
That is how I learned Croatian kek

Spanish is fucking easy to learn.
No cases. Subjunctive and preterite vs imperfect are tricky but there's a clear pattern that you learn once you immerse yourself in the language.
t. Gringo that studied in Spain for four years.
The hardest language I think is Vietnamese. More tones than Mandarin, weird grammar, easy but eyesore writing system. It sounds ugly so the motivation to progress is halted by your ears bleeding.
Only one phrase that you're absolutely required to learn in korean.

Pronunciation can be a little tricky, but other than that it really isn't that difficult.
Also, Hangul is a brilliant writing system tbqh.
독도는 한국땅 etc.
>>59795162
Yep
If you want to write the following sentence:
"Mr. A goes to Tokyo."
In Korean:
"A sshi ga Tokyo e kayo"(probably, I guess.)
In Japanese:
"A shi/san ga Tokyo e iku/ikimasu"
We have almost same grammer and words with Chinese characters in common.
It's easy to learn, and pronunciation can be done with practice but I find memorisation the hardest thing.
Slovak is supposedly the hardest language in the world. - Slovenčina je údajne najťažší jazyk na svete.
>>59795532
>A sshi ga
"A sshi nun" probably
>>59795624
Both are correct
>>59795310
Ahahaha. Vietnamese, hard? Sure. Hardest? No way. I'm learning it now, and its grammar isn't even that different from English. Not at the level of Korean or Japanese. I'd say those are both harder despite the easier pronunciation, especially Japanese.
>>59795619
Not for slavs kek
I think the hardest language (that is not obscure), for the most people in the world, would be Arabic.
>>59790383
Chinese, Russian.
>>59790383
Chinese

English pronunciation isn't the easiest thing, but the hardest? I would say the pronunciations in Russian, Czech, Polish, Vietnamese, Icelandic, Arabic, and most Chinese varieties are all harder than English, although I admit they all directly correspond to their writing systems better than English does.
>>59790383
Chinese and arabic.
>korean
kek
>>59796133
Russian IS NOT hard, the only reasons people call it hard are exceptions and stupid pronounsation. THANK COMMIES.
>>59790383
poo in loo language..they make the alphabet shitting randomly on street
>>59793678
good post
The most difficult language would have to go to either Arabic or Chinese
Chinese for its convoluted and ridiculous writing system and Arabic for the pronunciation, grammar, sentence structure, etc.
>>59800201
I like this post. I have always wondered why English has such shitty pronunciation and spelling rules. Like, you don't need at least 5 letters of alphabet at all.
>>59803808
>Chinese for its convoluted and ridiculous writing system
Tonal system too. It is beyond ridiculous, especially when combined with their writing system, dear God
>>59795310
The language is not difficult at all. it is another history to learn it for talking. The dialects are a problem as well. We dont have a neutral spanish how the germans have.
>>59804428
>I'd say just repurpose them
Well said. "C" is either "s" or "k", depending on the word, in modern English, which basically means it is not needed, really. But to do something like you proposed would be a good idea. What about "x"? "X" can be either "ks" or "z", so what would be its new purpose, if we were to repurpose letters in English? What about consonant pairs, like "th", "gh" etc?
>>59793678
you picked a strange character
it is the same as 報, or 报
>>59806253
Nice, I like this, but I have some questions. I kind of think that "q" can be written as some version of "k", what do you think about that? Making "x" into "ks" exclusively would make it obsolete, right? And what are some words in English where German "z"(ts) is used? I can't remember any at the moment
