 our language is sometimes hard to pronounce, even for speakers of fellow Germanic languages. 
 @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 :)
