A Japanese guy living in Finland said for him it has been easier to learn Finnish than English. He said the pronunciation of Finnish is not that difficult for a Japanese speaker.

Iâm half Hungarian half Dutch and I speak 9 languages (working on my tenth; bit of a language freak over here). Our family used to go on Holiday in Hungary at least once a year to visit our family over there. During those holidays I picked up quite a lot of Hungarian so I could understand and speak it quite well, I thought. But found it to be not well enough; sometimes people laughed when I said something that was not meant to be funny. So I signed in to a language school and started learning what I went for: perfect Hungarian. Keep in mind that in secondary school I had great trouble with the grammatical cases in German and Latin (4 and 6 respectively). I just couldnât grasp it. So you can imagine my heart missing a beat or two when I learned that Hungarian has 26 to 32 grammatical cases (depending on who you ask; luckily I found that I was already using most of them instinctively). Aside from a myriad of suffixes, postfixes, two conjugations of verbs in any tense (depending on the accusative), no strict word order (but the order used can change the meaning), vocal harmony (in which vowels change when adding cases, suffixes or postfixes. And itâs an agglutinative language which means that you can get very long words by adding multiple cases, suffixes and postfixes and even incorporate other words. The longest word I know as an example is âfolyamatellenĆrzĂ©siĂŒgyosztĂĄlyvezetĆhelyetteskĂ©pesĂtĂ©svizsgĂĄlatâ. An example of vocal harmony: âEgy remek rendszer, mellyel embereket, meg rengeteg elemet megkereshetszâ and âĂt török öt görögöt dögönyöz örökös örömök közöttâ.
Pronunciation isnât that difficult once you learn the sounds of each vowel (without or with an acute, double acute or umlaut) and the combinations of consonants (cs, dz, dzs, gy, ly, ny, sz, ty and zs) in short and long form. There are very few exceptions in the pronunciation (mostly in family names) nor in grammar rules.
Of course I realise I have the advantage of learning Hungarian from when I was 2,5 years old âŠ

Pronunciation is the easiest part of Hungarian, because 1 letter is always 1 sound and always the same sound. Unlike in English where âeâ can be at least 3 different sounds.

You pronounce the Finnish wordâs exactly like how you write it. Also coincidentally Finnish and Japanese have similar phonetical structure.

This is by far one of the best YouTube channels I've joined so far. I've always wanted to become a polyglot. So far, I've been able to speak 3 languages fluently such as English, Spanish and Portuguese which is my mother tongue and I've just started studying French.

Hello, girls! As a hungarian citizen I'm really proud of you how you read the hungarian sentence. I know it's difficult and complicated,but I have the felling that you could learn it if you want it. The video was pretty informative for me about the other foreign languages, thank you very much for your hard work on it! Big hug from Hungary<3

Uralic languages such as Hungarian or Finnish are hard , but arabic is another level , especially 'cause there're many dialects of it đ

1. Kuusi palaa = The spruce is on fire.
2. Kuusi palaa = The spruce is returning.
3. Kuusi palaa = Â The number six is on fire.
4. Kuusi palaa = Â The number six is returning.
5. Kuusi palaa = Â Six of them are on fire.
6. Kuusi palaa = Â Six of them are returning.
7. Kuusi palaa = Â Your moon is on fire.
8. Kuusi palaa = Â Your moon is returning.

As a Finn, languages that aren't pronounced as they are written are the hardest for me (or when the script is not Western alphabet). That's why written French is easy to understand, but speaking and understanding spoken French is VERY difficult! Similarly Persian is actually very logical, simple language, with regular verbs and very little exceptions, but the Arabic script makes it hard to read - vowels are not marked, you need to know them, and several phonemes have several different letters (for example z can be ŰČ Ú Ű° Űž )

I speak English fluently my mother tongue because Iâm from the USA and sadly thatâs it but Iâm working on Spanish but itâs definitely far from fluent and beginner level. Iâm going to be a foreign exchange student in Colombia and Iâm very excited to learn about Colombian culture and improve my Spanish speaking! I hopefully will be able to look back at this and see how far Iâve come! I also hope to learn more languages in the future especially like Mandarin, Japanese, Thai, and Korean definitely a challenge but whatever I set my mind to I accomplish so hopefully some day!

While finnish is not related to our neighboring Scandinavian languages, we still have few language relatives close to us like Estonian, Sami languages, Karelian, Vepsian, MeÀnkieli, Kven, and others.

i speak hungarian, german, english, some pretty basic spanish and i'm also studying latin. out of these, hungarian definitely seems the hardest because the grammar is so complicated and you can get reaaaly long words like megszentsĂ©gtelenĂthetetlensĂ©gdskedĂ©seiteĂ©rt

For me as a hungarian learning finnish is easy. One letter means a sound, that's it. Like in hungarian. Learning english was difficult to me, because of the pronunciation, I still can't get it right many times...

3:38 It's actually easier to understand someone from the Northern regions if you speak Mandarin(minus the far North East), cause a lot of the Northern dialects are similar to standard Mandarin, and use a lot of the same words. It gets harder when you go down South, cause more Southern dialects are basically different languages with very few loan words from Mandarin, and also more differences in terms of intonation, physical gestures, etc.

She said that the pronunciation in Hungarian is the hardest but itâs not! As someone who learnt it growing up the pronunciation is easy if you know what sounds the accents on the letters are to make. The hardest part is the grammar and how the word changes depending on who you are talking about or how you put it in a sentence. Kudos to them though, it is so cool they are polyglots!

Korean is easy to learn and hard to master. The alphabet is so logical and straightforward I've met one guy who said he learned it in a day. It took me about a week. Once you have the alphabet you can start to read things like street signs and order from shops or restaurants. They have so many English words that are just pronounced with a heavy accent. Very easy to pick up the basics. I think people get too hung up on being fluent. In my experience Koreans were happy that I made an effort, even if I was far from perfect.

heyo! hungarian here! yes, our language is very hard, but also very versatile :D we can say the same sentence in like 3 different ways, still it means the same. sometimes it depends on the question we were asked :D but honestly, we can understand anyone who speaks hungarian, even just a little :)

During lockdown, I tried teaching myself Spanish, because my mother's side is Puerto Rican, and Vietnamese because of my dad's side. Spanish is fine, and I've gotten pretty good since starting. But the Vietnamese was not happening đ. I tried starting with the alphabet, but felt like a lot of the sounds were counter-intuitive and the tones just made it that much more overwhelming

Why did they bother getting polyglots if they hadnt tried learning half the languages on this list and are just talking based on "what theyve heard about it"
