You might have thought English was hard, but, apparently, these are the six most difficult languages to learn.
Mandarin
Mandarin had thousands of special characters and four tones.
Arabic
Arabic has 28 script letters and sounds that do not exist in some other languages.
Polish
Polish spelling uses a lot of consonants, which makes writing and pronunciation hard.
Russian
Russian uses the Cyrillic alphabet. If your language uses the Roman alphabet (like English), this can be difficult because some of the letters look the same, but the pronunciation is different.
Turkish
In Turkish prefixes and suffixes are added to words in order to change their meaning or show direction.
Danish
Written Danish is often very different to its pronunciation.
