English is quite easy. Spelling/pronunciation is tricky - not phonetic but grammar quite easy.

My English pet peeves are Worcester Sauce and Leicester Square. The number of times I had to try to come up with an explanation why is it pronounced the way it is...

French, German and Slavic languages are much harder - nouns and pronouns have gender, grammatical cases... Ouch.

I love German long words that you can figure out as you hear them because they are built of several different words. Also, you can always read German with correct pronunciation - there are actual rules. I forgot most but can still read it and pick up a few words.

French... not so much. Everything sounds short but there are a lot of letters. Sounds nice though. My level of French is that depending on the subject, I can either talk/listen or read about it 😂

Most Slavic languages are phonetic but apart from that, quite hard.

I loved the short story, thank you!
