Spanish, by far, is much easier to learn than Chinese. I know because my Social Studies teacher has travelled the world in 80 days (just kidding) and speaks a ton of different languages. Ma in Chinese can mean four different things, depending on how it is pronounced: mother, horse, tiger, and rope. Weird, right?
