Some languages are like a puzzle with few pieces, easy to put together. Others are more like a maze, where you have to figure out new rules and sounds. It all depends on how similar the language is to your own.
Examples
- Learning French feels like learning a new song with familiar lyrics.
- Trying to speak Japanese is like learning a whole new set of symbols and rules for speaking.
- Spanish sounds a bit like English, so it’s easier to learn.
