Then I suspect you've never tried to learn languages that are very different from English like Mandarin, Hungarian, or Tamil.
- davedx 2y agoI've also tried Japanese, Swahili, Arabic and Hebrew. Languages with completely different writing systems obviously have a significant extra hurdle. And of course, it depends how well you want to learn it. Becoming fluent enough to get by when you travel somewhere for a holiday or business trip is one thing; becoming proficient enough to do job interviews and work full time professionally with that language is another kettle of fish. :)
