    just do it lmao hanzi are way cooler than the latin alphabet.

    in all seriousness, i would imagine it is quite difficult if english is your only native language HOWEVER basically any language becomes quite learnable if you have an appreciation for its culture and history. this appreciation has to come from somewhere - for me, it was the realisation of how much japanese stuff is owed to the chinese. another example is that i know a lot of people want to learn japanese because they watch our cartoons which is kind of :cringe: but if it keeps u motivated sure i guess?

    language difficulty is also highly subjective - french is considered somewhat easy or intermediate but that language gives me nightmares.

    tldr it wont be hard if you have a reason to learn that comes from within

      This. My girlfriend is teaching me Chinese and I am so much more motivated for this than I've been for any other language I've looked at. All about your motivation.

      lmao I remember trying to learn Japanese. I got that and korean confused all the fucking time when it came to speaking it. Thank god it's easy for me to differentiate Japanese Hira/Katagana, from korean Hangul.

      Only thing I need to work on now is differentiating Japanese Kanji from simplified Chinese Hanzi, and I'll be golden. I can't read literally any of them for the life of me, but I enjoy being able to spot the differences whenever I come across them in multimedia.
