 @c721880c I cant speak to your language. But as someone who is particularly aweful at learning new languages I can say of all the languages I ever attempted the non-dead language I found the easiest would be German.

That said of all languages I am best at latin, and even that not anywhere near great... I think it being a deadlanguage no one is alive to correct my bad pronunciation either :) 
 @b05df304 @c721880c Have you tried French? 
 @9ff9df5b French is the language I am, by comparison, the worst at... I think even chinese is easier for me honestly. 
 @b05df304 Germans have trouble pronouncing our words correctly, as i discovered the other day
