    As a native English speaker, I don’t know the language rules in English, I merely speak the language. I suppose the idea is that I can think with the same grammer in English as I can in Dutch or German (except when I can’t) than with romance languages.

    But at the same time, I feel like the Spanish language, is a fairly easy language for non native speakers to learn. It’s phonetical, it’s logical, it doesn’t have ridiculous numbers or times for the clock.

      I tried learning Spanish in school for about six years. IDK, maybe most other languages would be even harder, but I found it pretty hard, especially understanding spoken Spanish.
