While learning any new language is language is hard it has been said that Chinese is the hardest to learn. That is due to the memorization of characters for the written Chinese language as there are over thousands. Unlike the English language which is comprised of 26 letters from the alphabet, the written Chinese language are made up of individual characters.

Speaking the language is also tough as they rely heavily not only on the sound a word makes but the tone in which you say that sound. Even the slightest difference in tone will make one word mean something completely different.

Practice is very important in learning Chinese. Without speaking it, it is almost impossible to master Chinese.
