<p>I’m tired of French grammar. The rules are so…irritating especially with le’s and la’s, which should convey the same meaning. My Frnehc class is killing me now…=/</p>
<p>I believe spanish is easy orally but difficult when writing because there’s always some grammar problem in my writing (it can never be perfect).</p>
<p>I’ve spoken French my whole life, and I have to say the grammar rules and exceptions are much more difficult to master than Spanish.</p>
<p>i guess spanish is easier since i know a lot of native speakers that can help me lol</p>
<p>its known that french is easier to learn than spanish</p>
<p>according… to who ? lol</p>
<p>It may be easier to learn, but harder to master.</p>
<p>French is awesome…I spend hours of my free time learning nuances of grammar and listening to tapes of native speakers so that I can get the intonation just right. I personally think that French is a prettier language, so there’s more motivation to learn it :D</p>
<p>However I want to major in French in college so I’m probably biased… :P</p>
<p>I live in Quebec, and I have to say the French we speak here is much less “pretty” than that spoken in France.</p>
<p>the canadian accent is different, but I still really like it. In any case, they both sound better than english.</p>
<p>The snootiness and pretentiousness of French are also factors that make me annoyed with it sometimes, like bitter Francophones decrying the rise of English and German in business and diplomatic situations. “French is the language of civilization”. Yeah, whatever, go live in the past.</p>
<p>Yeah, we English people in Quebec are surpressed, to the extent that even English print needs to be smaller than French print on signs.</p>
<p>French is more difficult to learn, spanish is way easier,</p>
<p>I took Latin for 2 years and this year am taking Spanish I. Personally, I find Spanish a confusing and twisted language, while Latin was a breeze. I wish I had continued Latin, but now my parents have bound me to Spanish. Then again, it might just be our terribly bad Spanish textbooks. Compared to Oxford Latin books, they’re trash.</p>
<p>I’ve taken both French & Spanish, and I find that French is much easier.</p>
<p>hmm… French seems harder… At my school, all people learn spanish fairly well, but french is different… French seems to have a lot more exceptions to all the rules, except for beginning french. Later on, for each tense, there is a whole new set of endings (that fundamentally sound the same) with a set of 15-20 roots for irregular verbs… it gets annoying. And ive tried speaking spanish… accent wise, spanish is easier. nasal and throaty sounds are harder than rolling. But thats just me. If you know a language other than english already, the language that it is more closely related to (be it gramatically or orally) will be easier.</p>
<p>I have taken both French and Spanish, and I found that French is much, much easier. There may always be an exception to the rule, but you have to keep in mind that languages are full of patterns. For example, while the 14 (give or take) French verb tenses may appear daunting at first, you really only have to memorize about 6 of them - the rest are just combinations of those 6.</p>
<p>On the other hand, I still can’t trill my R, and I wasn’t able to roll my R in Spanish.</p>
<p>If you really want easy, take Italian. Incredibly similar to Latin, yet very, very simple. And the pronunciation is exactly how it appears - once you learn the alphabet, you can pronounce anything.</p>
<p>French is harder than Spanish. French grammar is extremely complex…and French has many illogical exceptions. Of the languages I speak, including Arabic, English, German and Spanish, I would say French is the second hardest to learn, after Arabic.</p>
