Just think how poorly most native English speakers use the language.
dude you fail at logic lol
No he is right to an extent. Most young people don't speak English properly, even if they're from England!
For instance I don't know another language that has countable and uncountable nouns. e.g. grass is uncountable trees is countable.
hes not right, nor is he referring to people whose 2nd language is english as someone said - hes talking about native speakers, and is saying that most of them have grammar problems, therefore english=hard. this logic just fails, you will find people with grammar problems in their native tongue everywhere, it depends on their education, how many books they read and billion other things.
we are talking about learning english from foreigner perspective, and it seems rather easy to get to the level where you can communicate with others.sure later it gets harder, it depends on the conversations subjects and other things, but getting to this communitating level at english is easy compared to other languages.

Swedish is actually an extremely easy language to learn. The grammar is really self-explanatory and it just makes sense, as does mostly everything else. The pronunciation is also quite simple. Swedish is definitely easier than English, for example. The only thing difficult about it is the vocabulary, but that's how it is for just about every language.
