hardest part for me is kanji and sentence structure
really, learning hiragana/katana isn't that hard

chinese/japanese: wait these symbols have pronunciations?

i much lik learning japanese over chinese
i swear to god the tones are so annoying
if you say 'ma' the wrong way then it has a whole different meaning AGH

Yeah, having to accent things is annoying. If I say "papá", I'm addressing my father, if I say "papa", I'm either calling the person a potato or talking to one.

Facts, you can very easily refer to someone's mother (mā) as a horse (mă)
Plus there really isn't a pronunciation guide, they really are just random symbols with no association to forming sound, so you have to learn pinyin (Chinese in English alphabet) to be able to associate words with the characters.

Yes indeed. But I love languages so I'm always willing to learn.

I KNOW RIGHT
natively, i'm taiwanese where the main language there is mandarin but since i grew up in america, i was forced into chinese school ;;;;;-;;;;;

hahahahhaha i quit as soon as i was allowed to
i no longer remember 90% of what i learned

Fair. Life has no right to be so expensive if I don't even get to have fun.

Honestly, I had trouble learning English as a little kid.
When you live in a household where you only speak Spanish and then enter school without any knowledge of English, of course, it's going to be hard.

Anyway, my hair is too long at the moment and it fills me with rage
