The most difficult Indoeuropean languages...
<Chinese must be the most difficult>
Chinese doesn't belong to Indo-European languages.
Chinese doesn't belong to Indo-European languages.
Above post was written by me...
I agree with the Celtic because the written form is far from phonetic and pronunciation is difficult even for native English speakers.
Lots of animosity... I'd say Lithuanian... Or Polish w/ its three genders coupled with the personalities, which makes it come out to about five genders...
Stop defying my truths. It's obvious that Occitan is impossible for an outsider to learn. One must accept what is obvious, one must not get carried away in wishful thinking. I wish I could learn Occitan, but I can't because unless you are born speaking Occitan, you can't speak Occitan. Therefore it is stupid for me to want to speak Occitan, it's like wanting to be able to fly or wanting to be a rosmusin.

Eh no, they all are phonetic but they adhere to a different set of orthographically rules. And they adhere to them in the true sense, not like English, which may as well not be written down at all :-)
I am sure that Sanskrit is the most difficult one. it's the most archaic language of all.
<< yea it is >>
Ok lol I thought that Albanian was a isolated language as Basque.
No ALbanian is an indo-European language in its own branch and its the most difficult one.

Even though I still think that Celtic is very hard to learn. Though I agree with the thought about Polish. The way they spell their words is a nightmare for anybody trying to learn their language.

I liked your comment abuot English, Celtic follow a set of rules. Right, so since pronunciation is quite complex, then orthografy must be complex as well. <<Even though I still think that Celtic is very hard to learn. Though I agree with the thought about Polish.

Although an Irish bloke told me it's not as difficult as it looks but... Kind regards Pete from Peru
What about the Vietnamese, is this not considered an Indo-European language because it comes from Indo-China.
It isn't considered one because it isn't related to the languages classified under the Indo-European language family.
