I find it surprising that Malayalam is rated less difficult than Hindi. As speaker of several Indian-aryan languages, Dravidian languages like Malayalam always seemed more difficult to comprehend.
- half-kh-hacker 9y agoThere are a few that I thought were surprising, for instance, as a half-Cambodian person, I was surprised to see that Korean (a language that I am learning, and have picked up relatively quickly) was ranked two ranks above Khmer, (my father's native language, with a much more difficult script compared to Korean, and similar vocabulary difference to Korean. Furthermore, way more English loanwords exist in modern (South) Korean, so comprehending sentences is way easier for me in Korean than Khmer, even though I've only been doing it for about 4-5 months (on-and-off).
