As a German who speaks french: French is probably the easier language since you don't need to declinate words and only really use 3 forms for time.
Yes but at the same time german writing system is almost phonetic while french have many way to write one sound.
Imagine writing queue and saying Kö
It is not close to being phonetic. It is however quite consistent which is what you were probably thinking of.
I don't get it. How is phontenic defined then?
Nice. Is it a germanic langugage?
TIL
I studied German in high school and then as an adult I traveled to India and studied Malayalam, the language of the southern-most state of Kerala. I was surprised at how similar Malayalam was to German (in terms of grammatical structure, not vocabulary) and learned that it's because of Hermann Gundert, a 19th Century German missionary who learned Malayalam (and a bunch of other Indian languages) and published its first formal grammar, more-or-less imposing German's grammatical structure onto it.
Damn those poor people lol
Fascinating though! Thanks for sharing that
As a swede who have studied both, I think French is way worse.
