Every time I see something about the easiest/hardest language to learn, it’s always from the perspective of someone who knows a certain language. I wanna know the hardest/easiest languages to learn period. What has the easiest rules? Sounds? For a baby

Like ‘what’s easiest for the native English speaker is different from the native French speaker’ like okay cool that’s not what I wanna know though. English is stupid as fuck. “Rules” with a gazillion exceptions, verb conjugations that make no sense. So it’s probably not English. But idk all the languages so it’s not like I could know it myself without doing extensive research. I’m just curious, I don’t wanna know THAT bad

No I’ve been thinking about this too. I’ve been doing a language exchange with a native Spanish speaker learning English & I’ve been kind of finding out how hard English is. Phrasal verbs are crazy. Asf

No shit but surely, of all of them, one is the easiest, and one is the hardest, no?

I doubt it. Every language evolved naturally based on what early humans understood best
