    Default 1 reason why English is not that hard :)

    Surprise exam at my Vietnamese Sunday school ... Notice how many random squiggles there can be by words !


    Edit:

    This is a surprise exam... Which means some of my writing is going to be misspelled ._.

    I know how that feels. Writing in Russian is a killer.

    I read the title and my first thought was, "Well it isn't soft is it?"

    I'm Korean and it isn't hard at all. Chinese is a bit easier (only a bit) for some reason for me since I learned Korean earlier. But I guess it all comes down to opinion and the background of the person learning the language.

    Chinese is easy to speak, but hard to remember... The characters because there are so many xD! In Korean, there aren't many different pronunciations for vowels etc. Every stroke in Korean stands for a sound. Dang! I knew this would come to use one day xD!

    @David
    I'm not sure about Arab >_>... Just a bunch of squiggles like my cursive.
