Guy labeled "languages where everything is gendered" hovers menacingly, while a different guy labeled "non-binary people" runs away

      this is the usual anglocentric map: https://i.imgur.com/4ABYc7X.png

      so basically indoeuropean languages supposedly get harder the further away you go from england, and then languages belonging to a different language family are super hard.

      and i think languages spoken by non-whites are even harder, but that's not on this map, except for that bit of arabic in north africa. i'd guess they rate chinese as harder than arabic.

      hungarian uses the latin alphabet, has a fairly phonetic spelling, has had extensive contact with indoeuropean languages and borrowed a shitton of words from them (scientific vocabulary is largely latin/greek for example). so it's not that bad in comparison.
