<p>Grammar-wise, Chinese isn’t too hard 
It’s just the characters and pronunciation that gets to people. Chinese pronunciation is very hard, especially with all the tones and sounds that aren’t in English. If you’re comparing Chinese to other common languages learned in high school, like Spanish or French, you’ll find it a lot more difficult. But if you’re comparing it to other Asian languages, like Japanese or Korean, you’ll find it easier (once you can get past the pronunciation and characters). If you’re just talking speaking it, Chinese is the easiest to be fluent in But if you’re talking about the writing system, there are about 50,000 characters in the whole language…</p>
