Mandarin, japanese, and korean – which is the hardest language? august 18, 2017 1 comment so many americans think of asia as a vague group of countries on the other side of the world, with mysterious languages and an exotic culture.. But i do agree that chinese language(s) are the most difficult to learn languages and master in the world. for chinese speakers like us, we would find learning japanese, korean much easier. a mandarin speaker would find learning hokkien/cantonese easier.. In practice, learning mandarin isn't as hard as it seems. in fact, most of these assumptions are based on the way a scholar would approach learning the language, rather than ways that suit most people's real life learning objectives..
How hard is it to learn chinese language? many european, american or african students nowadays decide to study mandarin. the reasons for this are various.. Learning a new language can be a rewarding experience, but as with any new skill it takes a lot of practice and hard work. naturally, some languages will take longer than others to learn.. Among the six official languages of un, the hardest is definitely arabic. uvular/pharyngeal/emphatic denti-alveolar consonants are totally alien. the arabic script is of a different kind but there are only 28 anyway, not difficult to grasp. the grammar is weird, particularly the gender/number.
