me as a Brazilian and as someone who has already tried to learn those languages:, i'd say, for sure: Japanese and Russian. Mandarin is not that hard as it looks like, the thing i struggle the most is with tones, but im already getting used to them. As someone who speaks a language that has genders, plurals, tenses and different conjugations for almost every pronoun, learning Chinese is actually being a piece of cake lol, the hardest thing is to remember the ideograms but the speak is not that hard tho
Yes I also think chinese is much easier than languages like Russian hungarian arabic etc no conjugation patterns no cases no genders no tenses no aspect no plural It has all but no grammar just remember characters .
It's so funny to see people who know chinese saying french, german and etc
Haha how about you? What’s the most difficult language for you?
these languages are so difficult to them like Chinese (seems to be) to us, i understand their struggle with genders, tenses and even plurals, since they don't have it on Mandarin
@@aresjupiter847 yeah

As someone who speaks English as a native language: if you asked me when I was a young teenager I probably would have picked German or Mandarin. Now I have been learning German for almost two years and it actually isn't that hard. I had some pronunciation issues at the beginning with especially ö and ü, which I couldn't for the life of me get even half right at the beginning, but now I would like to believe that I can pronounce it right 80% of the time (I hope lol).
Now I am looking contemplatively at Mandarin, because while it could be more challenging in that I need to learn a whole new writing script and I am not entirely sure my mouth can do any tones even half correctly, I also had many doubts when it came to German and while I am no master at German, I have done so much better than I ever thought I could. So here I am on the first video I have ever watched of Easy Mandarin and I hope that in another two years I will be able to hold some degree of conversation in Mandarin as long as I stick with it. After all, German proved that even I can learn a language, despite being convinced before that that my brain was not built for language learning.
Thank you for the video! I found it super interesting, and also kinda funny how many people said German haha. Deutsch ist aber nicht so schwierig, meiner Meinung nach.
For me, a portuguese speaker, mandarin isn't hard. There's no gender variation, the grammar isn't hard and it's Logic, the only problem in chinese language is the about 3000 kanjis you have to learn to be considered fluent, it's too much symbols to learn 😥
I think the characters are the most easy part of Mandarin. You just have to remember them, thats it. There are many techniques that help (like memnonics etc..).
0:37 "Because every sound sounds similar"...I think he doesn't know about the existence of mandarim 😂😂
How does every mandarin sound the same? It sounds way defined and clearer than german
Yes as arabe I do understand why they think that Arabic is hard but I know some chinese who speak arabic and their pronunciation are good,so Chinese have ability to spell Arabic words correctly
Agreed! 🙌🏻
Thank you very much for this video, it helps me a lot for my chinese exams! Nothing like listening to native speakers.
Greetings from Mexico
Glad to hear that! ❤ and thanks for your support!
Oh man, I can't believe it. I'm studying French at the moment with Duolingo and I have found you there as well in the comments with the same profile pic so I could recognize you. What a concidence! Salutations. Did you finish the French course? Do you speak fluent already?
@@criticovirtual jajaja ya van dos veces que me pasa eso en CZcams! Todavía no termino el de francés, cambiaron la forma de aprendizaje de Duolingo con un camino e hicieron que me retrasara para terminar el árbol, porque ya no hay árbol.
Me faltan unas cuantas unidades con las coronas legendarias (lo malo es que ahora son 8 lecciones para la corona y siento que muchas unidades están repetidas y son innecesarias).
Un saludo, bro
As a Japanese, I wish some people say "Japanese is too difficult".
Haha “助詞” is quite hard for most Japanese learners!
As Arab Japanese is difficult
Of course!!!
I havent learn Japanese yet but i've heard many times that the rules are extra than those on the textbook. @A@
Lmao your videos
English is the hardest language to learn. Even people who speak it don’t use it correctly. 😅
Yes. To speak a language natively is always quite challenging!
Great video, as always! ❤
Thanks for your support 💙🩵💚
As someone who's fluent in Afrikaans, English and German I've gotta say that Mandarin is the hardest 😫
That’s cool you could already speak 3 languages fluently! I guess maybe you could try Mandarin! ;)
作为一个在德国土生土长，在韩国读完高中和大学，毕业之后来到大陆已有20多年之久的韩国人，看着这视频感觉特别有趣。
Im Video sagen die meisten dass Deutsch und Koreanisch einer der schwierigsten Sprache zu lernen sein soll, darauf stimme ich einigermaßen zu.
I can see that this vid is made in Taiwan, the Chinese spoken there is 台湾国语， not 大陆普通话 which is used here in mainland China.
하지만 처음 시작하는 초보자는 대만식으로 배우든 대륙식으로 배우든 아무 상관 없습니다.
u got the flex mein bruder
I honestly find taiwanese accent way nicer than mainland dongbei accent, it doesn't sound harsh and actually kinda pleasant sounding
It’s also cool that there are always various accent/ slang/ dialect even in the same language, isn’t it? 😆😆😆
谢谢
謝謝你的支持！❤️
I’m from Mexico and to know that a girl is trying to learn Spanish is so cute and nice. ❤
❤️
Chinês é o idioma mais fácil de se aprender, porque os hanzi se parecem exatamente com os seus significados
Some smaller languages very difficult because of their grammar: Finnish, Estonian, Hungarian, Icelandic.
Grammar is indeed not easy for many languages! Especially if you would like to speak in very native way!
It's funny how they are saying all this languages and they don't realize that the hardest language is the one they are speaking 😂
these people obviously have never heard of Hungarian. :) I'm learning both and I think even with the Chinese characters, Mandarin is easier than Hungarian.
Which part of Hungarian do you think is the most difficult? Reading?
@@EasyMandarin the grammar. it's an agglutinative language. The conjugations specific for singular or plural 1st and 2nd person, past, present, conditional tenses. Also like chinese with 4 tones, Hungarian has accents as well. So if pronounce wrongly would mean stg else.
@@Cutenessapproved As a Hungarian I of course think Mandarin is harder :D Hungarian grammar is very logical, which means a lot of rules, but also not so many exceptions. Which in the end helps. If this helps: those accents indicate very distinctive sounds and lengths. Wrong pronunciation can lead to misundersandings in all languages, but I get it. I'm learning Mandarin and with the effort I've already put in I could have fully mastered Croatian for example.
@@Viola-ou7ll I don't know if this is a fair comparison to judge on how difficult Hungarian is. I've met more Hungarians who can speak fluent and good Chinese than I do Chinese who speak fluent and good Hungarian even after learning for years. 😁
At first, when they named german,french, I thought "wow,in fact European languages are difficult for chinese people, why can't I master madarin?"
But then, when even Chinese people confirmed mandarin is the hardest, I wanted to quit this all forever
I wish there were an option for Simplified Chinese subtitles 😅
Spanish of chile the hardest
I think its chinese. the written language isnt phonetic for christ's sake. If you dont know the word, you dont know the word. You cant even fake pronouce it. It's literally pictures. - chinese guy
Haha yeah Mandarin is quite different from Westen languages, different system! But the characters are beautiful, isn’t it? ☺️☺️☺️
中文最難😢
一起加油學中文！你可以的！💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
文言文
文言文的確不容易 😆
African bantu languages like Xhosa and isiZulu with their complex tonal system and clicking sounds makes Chinese seem easy in comparison 😂
我五天前开始学习中文，已经相当困难了。 难怪它是世界上最难的语言。☠️
才學習五天可以打出完整句子已經很厲害了👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 不過中文的確不容易，加油！💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
You got me with the girl sitting in the background at ~9:05. She has some amazing legs 😍😍
我觉得中文不太难
👍🏻
汉字非常难！
Try Amharic. Ethiopian language. Its impossible.
最难学的语言就是借不想学的语言
中文超不easy的xd
👍🏻
Judging by comments from many of my Chinese (and other foreign) friends, wife included, my native tongue Dutch 🙂
I'd go out on a limb by saying I think Dutch is harder due to grammar and some particularly difficult sounds.
Yeah, I went to the Netherlands recently and while the grammar and reading was relatively easy because I speak German, hearing Dutch just really didn't connect in my head. Some words literally have the same or very similar spelling in German and if someone were to say it I just couldn't tell.
Yeah Dutch could be hard 😂
@@ZenovaXD Yes, knowing German is a definite plus in understanding Dutch as the 2 are quite similar. German is also taught in Dutch schools by the way. But for someone who doesn't know a similar language Dutch is a pain in the backside to learn.
As for Chinese, the tones are the real tricky part, however having spent a LOT of time in China I find context often defines more than the tones (otherwise how else could you sing a song in Chinese?).
Mandarin Chinese, preferably with a slight Beijing accent, is still amongst the sexiest languages to hear ❤
Nah...Cantonese or Taiwanese Hokkien is much harder to learn than Dutch.
@@bingsterc7621 And based on what do you draw that conclusion?
The hardest language is not even a natural language 🤡
The hardest language is Ithkuil, an artificial language with a freaking ton of sounds, prefixes and suffixes.
It has almost any sound you could find in a language so, it's really hard to pronounce and, it also has a suffix for anything 🤯
That thing is unlearnable bruh.
If you know it...
Then...
You're a genius because, not even the creater of this conlang knows how to speak it fluently 🤡
But, the hardest natural language might be...
Icelandic because it's not related to any language so, this means...
You might not recognize a word🤡
Like, bruh...
Even 10% of Japanese vocab comesfrom English so, it's not the hardest for you🤡
icelandic is a germanic language, related to norwegian and other scandinavian languages. even as a german native i can guess maybe 20% of an icelandic text. maybe you mixed it up with basque language, which is indeed not related to any other language and super hard to learn.
為什麼受訪者都蠻漂亮的
是挑臉訪問嗎？
當然沒有 😂
是隨機的街訪，讓中文學習者可以聽到最真實直接的中文母語者講中文😄😄😄
just imitate a dog, there perfect Germ speech
In my opinion, I think the most difficult language to learn is either Cantonese or Taiwanese Hokkien.
Why do you think it’s hard to learn these languages?
@@EasyMandarin It is because Cantonese has around 6 different tones, and Taiwanese Hokkien has around 8 different tones. That is why I think either Cantonese or Taiwanese Hokkien is most difficult language to learn.
Aw yeah it sounds indeed quite hard 😅😂
我是俄羅斯人，我認為俄語真的很困難， 但是我以為中文是最難的語言，沒想到俄語跟中文有許多像的語法 😮
真的嗎？好特別！😁
