French is sometimes described as the most difficult European language, and this is true to a certain extent. You wouldn't believe the number of completely silly rules in the language, especially weird spellings that aren't pronounced. As a result, many native speakers with a college education still make a substantial number of spelling mistakes.
When we compare french with English this what we’ll find
- Verb conjugations. There are around 50 ways to conjugate each verb. (there are many tenses not found in English or that can be expressed more simply).
- In French, each noun is given an arbitrary gender.
- Accents, placed pretty much arbitrarily. It's hard to remember where to put them, especially since there are 3 types.
But some people justify saying, Japanese is considered a difficult language mostly due to two factors. First, the writing system is complicated. Second, Japanese is not closely related to another language, so, except for "loanwords", students will find that there are few words that are similar to native language words.
