Question
Would you say that german would be a hard language to learn?

Answer
Hello

I think that, for an English speaker, it is a language that is essentially easy to learn, because of the common vocabulary stock (example house --> Haus). For people knowing Latin and or Greek or a Slavic language it is easier (cases, Grammar).

Regards,

Kurt

PS. An oral approach of learning a language is the best one, I think.
