A few thoughts about the difference in languages

Which languages are the most difficult? Many people believe that this is Chinese. Russian language is also considered difficult. I think Finnish is one of the most difficult.

What is important for those who are connected with Germany?

German is often compared with English, not because it’s very similar, but because these are the languages you need in Germany. Well then.

I find German more difficult. Although of course, I was learning English for more than 10 years. Even my master’s thesis was in English. I started learning German relatively recently. Anyway, grammar looks more impressive.

There are also many similarities with the Russian language.  However, there is one problem. There are identical features, but still, there is nothing absolutely identical. Therefore, it is often even more difficult in this way. You allow yourself to relax a little, “this is how we have it,” and then you will surely make a mistake, but you will find it latest.

There is also a separate funny topic about the same words but with a different meaning. For example “der Fluss” in German, it’s a flow. “Флюс” (*Flus) in Russian, this is a terrible abscess in your mouth when a tooth is sore.

I can think about that for a long time. But still, it is much easier when languages have common features.
