Chinese is One of the Hardest Languages to Learn

Would like to share with you a very interesting infographic “The Hardest Languages to Learn”. According to this infographic, Spanish, Italian and French are easy to learn; Russian, Hindi and Greek and medium to lean; and Chinese is among the top 4 most difficult languages to learn!

There are many factors determining how hard a language is to be learned, number of hours which has to be devoted to learning is one of the key factor. According to this infographic, the easy languages require 23-24 weeks, or 576-600 hours to learn; the medium languages require 44 weeks, or 1,100 hours to learn; and hard ones require double the time — 88 weeks or 2,200 class hours! Keeping this in mind and keep on going with Chinese learning!
