    Huh? When have I constantly attacked you or questioned you? It’s in your head. As far as I’m concerned, we’re just having a discussion. I’m a SEA comrade and I’m actually of the opinion that Bahasa, both Melayu and Indonesia are actually more intuitive for English speakers than Mandarin. They are clean and simple languages, due to their lack of vowel and consonant exceptions, use the Latin alphabet innately (like English).

      Well, okay, for now I’ll take your word for it that you aren’t simply attacking me.

      But yes, from my experience, Mandarin was much easier to learn than all the other languages that I tried my hand at.

      Good day.

        Right, but we wouldn’t know what your experience with other languages looked like. Maybe give us examples of the other languages you’ve learnt compared to Mandarin so we understand more accurately where the language actually stands in terms of difficulty.
