For most Americans, Spanish is the most popular and easiest to learn. Many people in the U.S. and surrounding countries speak Spanish. Since English is a mixture of French and German and French and Spanish both have Latin as a root language, there is a great deal common between the two. I'm sorry to say that Chinese is looked on here as the hardest. The reasons are the tones and the character script.

body language =P

Hi, I think it depends whether you can learn quickly and have an ear for pronunciation. I found Italian and French easier to learn than Japanese.

I've read that the language called Esparanto (spelling?) is supposedly the easiest language to learn - but I am not sure which 'native' language speaking group that would apply to. That and the fact it is supposedly a universal language - and that's all I know about it :)

Hello Linna, You better mention some languages to tell which of them is easier to learn. In general and absolutely it is difficult to determine the most easy language to learn, because it remains a relative, subjective matter. I can tell you that your language is on the other hand one of the most difficult to learn ;)
