What Is The Most Difficult Foreign Language to Learn Today I read a news online, a journalist asked a professional translator which one is the most difficult language to learn. That translator is a genius who is able to speak 32 languages. For most of us, it is not a easy task to acquire a second language, we must think the 32 languages speaker has no difficulty with any languages. The reason that Chinese is so difficult for foreigners that Chinese is nothing like any other languages. English and other Germanic languages are all sharing the same origins. As an unique origin language in wold but been used by most of the population, Chinese becomes a popular language in the world. I have heard some of the European countries take Chinese course as a compulsory subject, some of the foreign students need to take 96 minutes per day for Chinese study, I feel very sympathetic, that triggers me to think about when I was at school, English was a compulsory course, we had to spend 45 minutes every day to study it, that made those who didn’t enjoy learning the languages felt sad and under pressure. For those who are planning to learn Chinese, are you willing to take the challenge? By the way, I fell so lucky as the Chinese speaker and don’t need to learn this challenging language.

What Is The Most Difficult Foreign Language to Learn?

Today I read an online news article. A journalist asked a professional translator which language is the hardest to learn. That translator is a genius who can speak 32 languages. For most of us, it is not a easy task to acquire a second language and let us assume that the 32 languages speaker has no difficulty with any of these languages.

The reason that the Chinese language is so difficult for foreigners is it is unlike any other. English and other Germanic languages all share the same origins*. As an unique and original language in the world and used by most of its population, Chinese has become a popular language throughout the world.
I have heard that some European countries take Chinese course as a compulsory subject, and some of the foreign students need to take 96 minutes per day for Chinese study. I feel very sympathetic, and reminded of when, at school, English was compulsory and we to study it for 45 minutes every day. That made those who disliked languages sad and under pressure.

For those who are planning to learn Chinese, are you willing to take the challenge? By the way, I feel so lucky as a Chinese speaker who does not need to learn this challenging language.

*origins (fr) = roots (ge).
