The difficulty would depend on what language you originally speak, a new language will only be difficult to the learner if that language has: 1. New System of writing, 2. Words with no similarity from your native language. 3. The pronunciations are too dfficult from your usual tongue folds. and 4. If you never had an interest on it.

Chinese is easy to learn but hard to master. chinese characters were created about 7000 years ago, language and grammar system were built about more than 3000 years ago. chinese becomes more and more complicated in its history including words and grammar. you can find the grammar and words of ancient chinese are rather simple. however, english was being simplified through the past. if you study the history of english language, you can find that more than 80% english vocabulary comes from foreign language such as french, latin, greek, etc, and the grammar is a simplified mixture of the languages above. so opposite to chinese, english is more and more simplified in its history. no conjugation, no gender, no confusion. besides this, english is close to nature thought. Mark Twain said you can master english after 30 hours learning, french after 30 month, and german after 30 years, of course, it's his personal opinion, especially Mark is a english native speaker. however, english is indeed one of the easiest language in the world. you can say anything with knowing words. in the mainly language, german and russian are the most difficult, especially the pronunciation of russian. german and chinese are two extremes of grammar. german grammar is very strict, so at the beginning, it seems very difficult to learn and the chinese one is obscure and abstract which depends on its culture. so you can find that german is easier and easier during the study, and chinese harder and harder.
