What language is harder Spanish or French?

Many people agree that French is a harder language to learn than Spanish, but French grammar more closely mirrors English grammar than Spanish grammar does. It is far better, if you have to choose between studying French or Spanish that you choose the language that is more useful to you since the level of difficulty of both languages (assuming you know English) is roughly equivalent. For example, we are not contrasting Spanish and Arabic where Arabic is significantly harder to learn than Spanish.

English also had one of the largest vocabularies of all the languages in the world, making it easier to learn on a basic level, but harder to become fluent in.


Are some languages harder to learn than others?
