    It is very difficult for foreigners, because foreigners may not be able to pronounce some sounds, but because many words in Chinese are like this, it is very difficult for them to learn.

    Chinese is difficult for foreigners, because a word has different meanings in different contexts, and it will also produce different meanings due to different tones, so it is not easy to learn Chinese well.

    Many foreign languages have only 2 sounds, while Chinese has four sounds, most foreign languages only have dozens of letters, and then constantly combined, the number of words in Chinese is too large for them, there are no rules to find, and the meaning of the word is common, so it is difficult for them to reach the sky.

    The difficulty of Chinese lies in the variety of syllables and glyphs, and for foreigners who are accustomed to only 24 letters, it is extremely difficult to learn the pronunciation and writing system of Chinese.

    Chinese is more difficult to learn than English, because Chinese has one tone and multiple characters, one word and multiple tones, and tones. For example, a word has different pronunciations in different contexts, and it also has different meanings, so it is particularly difficult for foreigners to say that Chinese is particularly difficult. As long as you learn grammar well and understand the meaning of each word, then you will be able to learn English well.

    Chinese is very complex, and a word has different pronunciations and meanings in different contexts.

    I believe that many people have seen a Chinese listening on the Internet, and there is a very famous topic when taking the Chinese listening test, that is, do you know what I mean? Do you know what that means? There are many meanings in this context, for example, what we mean is to let you be accommodating, let you open a back door for me.

    For example, what does the word Ranjing mean, it means what the meaning of the word is. Therefore, it is very difficult to remember that a word has different pronunciations and meanings in different contexts.

    Chinese also has a difference in tone.

    Chinese also has a difference in tone, a word has 4 tones, when expressing different tones, we have to say different tones. And due to the different tones, a word also has many meanings, and it is really difficult to understand. We Chinese learn Chinese from a young age, and we have to study for a long time to be able to learn Chinese, and we can only say some Chinese simply, and we can't use Chinese to write some official documents or classical Chinese, which will be more difficult in the eyes of foreigners Chinese.

    The disturbed paragraph means that if you want to learn Chinese well, then you must live in China for a period of time, so that you can cultivate a certain sense of language and truly learn China.

    Summary. Therefore, learning Chinese is a difficult thing, if you want to learn Chinese well, then you must come to China for a period of time, such as living or traveling for a period of time, so that you can really learn Chinese well.

    Because Chinese has a much longer history than English. Chinese is more complex and difficult to understand than English.

    Because shouting and burning eyes for Chinese each word has many meanings, not fixed, very elastic Zheng Sui. The main difficulty is that the meaning of a word in different contexts is different, so it increases the difficulty of learning Chinese. This involves Chinese grammar, which is difficult to master in every language, and Chinese grammar is no exception.

    Because Chinese culture is broad and profound, it has a long history, and it is the crystallization of the wisdom of the Chinese people for 5,000 years. The history of English is relatively short, mostly composed of letters, and it is easy for Brother Bi Zheng to understand, and the word Chinese has multiple meanings.

    Chinese is difficult first and then easy, and it takes about six or seven years to recognize thousands of commonly used words. But once you recognize it, there is no problem in reading the general ** and newspapers, and it is not difficult to read the instructions of medicine and household appliances;

    In English, the opposite is true, the easier is the first and then the hardest. When I learned English, the twenty-six letters and forty-eight IPA were all recognized in just one day, but as I learned, the trouble became bigger and bigger, such as Chinese, as long as I knew the words "牛 and meat, spelled together is beef", know what it means. But in English, cow is "cattie", meat is meat, and beef is beef, which is a completely different word that must be memorized by rote!

    Such situations abound, so after ten years of learning English, I can only know 120,000 words, and all English words have exceeded one million and are still increasing. In the third grade of primary school, I was able to read the Four Great Classics, Railway Guerrillas, and Lin Hai Xueyuan, and the middle school students in Britain and the United States, if they wanted to read "Orphans of the Fog", "Wuthering Heights", "A Tale of Two Cities" more than 100 years ago...It is very difficult to wait, and even if you change a major, you will not be able to read professional books. For example, an English translator may not be able to understand an English professional book on petrochemical engineering.

    Therefore, from the comparison of the two languages, I think that Chinese is superior to English, and the reason why English is widely used in the world is entirely because of the United Kingdom and the United States, which have strong national strength. If one day China's national power surpasses that of the United States, then Chinese will inevitably replace English and become popular all over the world!

    1. Learning a language is done in stages.

    First of all, in the initial stage of language, the difficulty coefficient of all languages is not very different, and learners only need to have a good memory and use it regularly. This level is enough to meet the needs of grocery shopping, shopping, ordering food, and giving directions.

    You see those Vietnamese, Burmese, South Korean, Russian daughters-in-law who have married, have only been in China for a year or two, and they speak Chinese without being too walked.

    Chinese is not only easy to learn, but also modular, scalable, concise and efficient, and is the best language in the world. If there is an Esperanto as a global standard in the future, it will undoubtedly be Chinese.

    2. Everyone's language talent is different, your honey, my arsenic. Some people have a high level of language talent, and even if they don't go to a language school, they can learn basic languages; And some people have very poor language talent, even if they go to a language school, it is difficult to learn.

    3. Living environment, subjective initiative and age have a huge impact on language learning!

    The best way to learn a language is to immerse yourself in it at a very young age and maintain a considerable interest in it. Without Isanjo, it would be difficult to learn any language!

    Japanese, Russian, German, Arabic, Finnish, etc., are not easier to learn than Chinese, many people have not been exposed to it, and take it for granted that Chinese is the most difficult, in fact, learning a language must take into account age, talent, interests, environment, methods, etc.!

    This is because Chinese is very easy to learn and does not need to memorize much, while Chinese need to memorize a large number of words and memorize some grammar when learning English, so it is very difficult.

  12. Anonymous users2024-01-28

    Mainly because there are too many phonetic transcriptions in English. And it's hard to remember the letters. The main thing is that we don't want to learn English, but foreigners are generally very studious.

  13. Anonymous users2024-01-27

    Because many foreigners are very cheerful compared to Chinese, and there is no accent in Chinese.

    Summary. It is said that Chinese is the most difficult language in the world to learn, and it is not difficult for us to take Chinese as our mother tongue, but it is really difficult for foreigners who have not been in contact, after all, like our country's cultural heritage is so profound, many Chinese languages contain various meanings, if they can understand ancient Chinese, it is quite helpful for learning Chinese characters, but if these foreigners can learn ancient Chinese well, they will not be so anxious about modern Chinese. Therefore, even if many foreigners have learned Chinese for a long time, they are still unable to integrate and apply it proficiently.

    Many foreigners who have learned Chinese for a long time still have many obstacles in daily application, and there are some Chinese that must be understood in the context, which foreigners will not understand even if you explain it, because each Chinese character is a life with temperature, entrusting the rich connotation of Chinese culture.

    Foreigners have difficulty learning Chinese, unable to distinguish between four tones, synonyms, and difficulty in listening and speaking.

    The second difficulty is that there are too many Chinese words.

    The third difficulty is that Chinese is difficult to learn by itself, and there is no systematic teaching material.

    Fourth, the meaning of Chinese cannot be judged only from the surface.

    Difficulty 6: The ancient Chinese books are broad and profound.

    Chinese is difficult.

    The routines of learning Chinese are basically similar to English, and you must first learn Hanyu Pinyin.

    can speak Chinese characters, but the pinyin of Chinese is comparable to the phonetic transcription of English.

    It's too difficult, every word has a tone, and there is a flat tongue.

    Even if you learn pinyin, you may not be able to say the words, English is that each word has a fixed meaning, for example, aunt and aunt are one word, but in Chinese they are two words, with different pronunciations.

    What's even more difficult is that even if you know the words, there must not be many foreigners who can understand the idioms, and they can't figure out how to form sentences, because some Chinese characters change in tone in the sentences, which makes foreigners have a headache.

    Writing and listening are two big hurdles, if you want to write well, you also need to be able to write punctuation, Chinese characters are all kinds of strokes, listening is also difficult to understand, if you don't understand, you can't communicate, you think you learn very well, a mouth or can't express clearly, this is a common thing, learning Chinese is really difficult.

    Chinese students who learn English" are also miserable.

    The subject of English is recognized by the student party as the subject that most wants to be canceled, and most people don't use it in their lives.

    It is not very difficult to learn the phonetic alphabet of English, after all, it is so difficult to learn Chinese pinyin in China, and the difficulty is to memorize words, grammar, and listening.

    How hard is Chinese to learn? The foreigner was deceived into learning the dialect, and he almost collapsed if he couldn't understand Chinese sentences!

    We all say that there is no country whose language is more difficult to learn than Chinese, Chinese is the most difficult in the world, and the reason why you speak it is because you are Chinese, Chinese is your mother tongue, and if you were born in the UK, then English is very simple for you. Think about it with your brain to know how difficult Chinese is, first of all, there are tens of thousands of Chinese characters, each word has different meanings in different contexts, the grammar is complex and cumbersome, and there are polyphonic words and so on, so it is very rare, relatively speaking, English, Korean and Japanese are not as difficult to learn as Chinese. The most infuriating thing is the local dialect, the same Chinese have different dialects in different places, even if the Chinese fully understand it takes several days, not to mention foreigners who do not understand Chinese at all.

    Therefore, foreigners who need to learn Chinese must learn Chinese well, and it will be embarrassing to be sloppy.
