The characters are pretty hard but they have like... VERY, I mean VERRRYY little grammer at all.
"Hard how is it to learn chinese?"
Do you know how this sounds?:souka:
Hum...I'd say that if you're willing to give it 10-15 hours/week, you can learn the basic in less than 3 months (if you're a total foreigner I mean)
WHAT???? Every day for 12 years for an hour more like. Every day I study for at least an hour and try to speak with my parents the whole day for the past 12 years and I can only speak. Now then, image writing which is about... 10 times harder then speaking.Quote:

You'd be surprised to see foreign student at my association who were barely able to read the alphabet in French going through our school's french program and be able to speak/read and write french without too much problems after only 2 months.
The same goes with a friend, he took a 3 months chinese course before he went to shanghai and he was able to survive there without too many problems.
Now it depends what you consider as basics...
