Granted, mastering French is a real challenge. Nevertheless, it is probably one of the best decisions you can make for a variety of reasons.

Is French an easy language to learn? 🙋🏻‍♂️

It is difficult to answer "yes" or "no" to this question, because everything depends on the situation!

As a general rule, Spaniards or Italians find it easier to learn French. This is due in part to the similarities between French and languages of Latin origin.

One only has to look at or listen to Italian or Spanish to see the many similarities in vocabulary, grammar and pronunciation. For example, regular verbs are similar and often share the same roots, which makes learning French easier.

For English speakers, however, it's a different story 😅

French can be a little more difficult because of significant differences in pronunciation, grammar and vocabulary. English speakers often have difficulty pronouncing certain French words because certain sounds do not exist in their language. French grammar can also be a challenge for them.

But rest assured, even if you are an English speaker, don't worry. French is an affordable language and with perseverance, diligence (and a few French classes), you will find that the challenge is surmountable!
