gaellic is actually the hardest language to learn for most people

>>35972967
isn't arabic the hardest language tho?

>>35972967
Arabic is harder

I tried and failed at it. tones are fucking incomprehensible to my american ears

>>35972967
>the hardest language on the planet
it's not that hard

>>35972967
Japanese and Arabic are both much harder than Chinese.

Isnt that because with Japanese there is like 10 Salutations for each word?

Language difficulty is honestly a meme in my opinion. This is coming from someone who is currently taking Chinese in uni.

I took Spanish in high school, and I can honestly say that for my Chinese is way easier. It's because I'm actually motivated to learn Chinese. I had no desire to talk to smelly wetback beaner spics, but China and Chinese cultire actually somewhat interests me.

If you have a good teacher who is a native speaker like mine and drills in tones, then it's smooth sailing.

Also, if you're looking for an outside resource, ChinsesPod is HIGHLY worth it. I started just listening and practicing some of the tone lessons before I started my Chinese class at uni and my professor complemented me on my pronunciation on the first day.

Chinese are literally subhuman insect people.

Among other reasons. That will be the least of your problems.

Japanese is weird as fuck.

It's easier to read but much harder to speak.

This, why would any one want to communicate with the hive. Learn a language that has people who are creative enough to make something worth exploring like the Italians or the French. There' s plenty of film and literature to find from both of those people.

The Taiwanese and overseas communities are fine. It's just the Mainland commie cancer that's the problem.
