Is japanese easier that french?
That would depend on the person and their learning style/affinity for each language. But in general I'd say Japanese is easier for the simple reason that pronunciation never changes, so once you learn proper pronunciation, you're done. You pronounce each syllable of a word in Japanese the exact same as you'd pronounce it in any other word, with no exceptions ever. With French (and english and many other languages), pronunciation of words is subjective and can vary depending on the arrangement of letters in a word, accents on top of words, etc. The writing is of course, the opposite as Japanese has three separate writing systems that they use together to form their written language. So from a reading/writing perspective, Japanese is harder.
