What's the easier language to learn Korean or Japanese?
>>
Don't know about Korean but Japanese isn't too difficult save for some of the kanji. The setence structure is pretty simple as it is just STPOV

Subject
Time
Place
Object
Verb

That's why so many Japanese (maybe proxy) posters have such shitty English skills.
>>
Japanese is more easier for Westerners
>>
>>61911928
why's that?
>>
Japanese is easier to pronounce (at least for me) but harder to write.
>>
>>61911826
Korean, it has an easy writing system.
>>
Korean
>>
Hangeul (korean alphabet) can be learned fully in ONE FUCKING DAY. It's the most logical and mathematical alphabet in the world.
>>
aren't they extremely similar, down to the sentence structure?

only thing that would really change is the script you're learning
>>
>>61917377
Korean has a lot of common with Japanese, however it's a completely different language.

No, Korean.
>>
>>61916489
this is really exaggerating
there's nothing hangul can do that roman alfabet can't
>>
>>61923906
for a script that originated in asia and was made almost completely from scratch, possibly based on nothing at all. it is pretty impressive
>>
>>61911826
Korean has the easier writing system even though they have liaison like in French. Japanese is easier for Westerners to pronounce and is simpler grammatically compared to Korean.

Both the same, equally worthless
>>
Japanese language is easier and deeper.
>>
Japanese
t. studied korean for 5 years, and then japanese for 6 months and got just as far
>>
>>61911928
Why? They've got 4 alphabets. Have you tried learning kanji?
>>
>>61911903
sentence order doesn't matter at all. That's why particles exist
>>
>>61921574
>>61921949 ( pronounced the same way- kek)

>>61923906
애, 으... etc
>>
>>61926800
>애
This one is stupid. A huge number of languages with Latin-based alphabets have this sound and use either plain e or e with some diacritical mark to represent this sound.
> 으
Turkish letter ı (dotless i)
>>
>>61927365
But he said roman alphabet. Roman alphabet by itself doesnt have these sounds. Romance alphabets do (for example portuguese 'é').
And turkish is not roman.
