Learning a foreign language is an incredibly difficult task.
A person who intends to master the basics of vocabulary and grammar of a foreign language will have to show great diligence and spend a lot of time.
Difficulties will arise when studying absolutely any system of verbal and written expression of thoughts.
But there are languages that are the most difficult to learn.
In 1991, the compilers of the Guinness Book of Records presented the top five most difficult languages in the world.
Chinese
As is known, this language is characterized by a hieroglyphic writing system.
There are several tens of thousands of Chinese characters in total: learning even some of them is very difficult.
There is another difficulty: Chinese is a tonal language. This feature clearly complicates the learning process.
However, it is worth mastering the basics of the Chinese language, since the total number of native speakers is about 1.3 billion.
Tabasaran language
This language is spoken by the Tabasarans. This is one of the Dagestani peoples.
The total number of native speakers of the Tabasaran language is just over 100 thousand.
The main difficulty of the language is the huge number of cases: there are 48 of them.
Haida
The speakers of this language (we are talking about literally several hundred people) live in the northwestern part of North America.
Haida is complex because it uses 70 prefixes.
Chippewa
The language is spoken by approximately 5,000 people, including the Ojibwe people, who live on several reservations in the United States.
The language is difficult to learn because it has 6,000 verb forms.
Eskimo
It is spoken by some people living in the Canadian Arctic Archipelago and also on the island of Greenland.
The Eskimo language is complicated by 63 present tense forms, as well as plural forms of nouns.
