Arabic would be so neat to learn! Except I'm afraid of the written form...
Language with the easiest grammar English. There are a few things you need to wrap your head around, but mostly it's pretty easy. I wish I could bottle this and sell it to the Japanese educational system...
Language with the hardest grammar Of the ones I've personally tried to learn, Chinese (it's grammar issues don't look similar to the ones I'm used to, but that doesn't mean it's easy). Yes! All the grammar difficulty is in weird places and sort of mixed up with syntax...
Your language learning guilty pleasure? Learning to read and write a language and never really getting beyond basic phrases in terms of speaking out loud because that's the hardest part of language learning for me. One reason it's nice to be able to do so much language stuff online where speaking is secondary at best... ;)
