Learning German Is Not Difficult
German is no harder than any other language. It is just that many people want to learn it perfectly so they can begin speaking without making any mistakes. That is next to impossible. The hardest part about the language is found in three interrelated points:
The Articles:
A masculine, feminine, or neuter article goes with ever noun. The problem is that there is no general rule for learning which article goes with which group of nouns. You have to memorize the article for every noun.
Cases:
German is made up of four cases. I will not go into details. I just want to mention that the difficulty with this lies in the fact that though there are a few general rules, it is not easy to recognize each case. And, in each one, the article for the noun takes a different form (Declension).
Declensions:
German is a language in which virtually all of the components of a sentence decline, depending on the gender and case. For example, adjectives decline based on whether the nouns that correspond to each adjective are definite or not, on the gender of the noun, and on the case.
These are the three main reasons why the language is famous for being impossible. Spanish speakers have many advantages when they learn German. For example, there are a number of transparent words from Greek or Latin that are in Spanish, English, and German.
Another advantage is pronunciation. Although everyone might say that pronunciation is difficult, I'm going to emphasize that pronunciation of the German language is easy. Just because at times we see those long names full of H's, that doesn't mean they're impossible to pronounce. You just need to have basic knowledge of the pronunciation of the alphabet, which is very similar to the pronunciation of ours, and know how to pronounce the main diphthongs of the language. This is how we'll begin to view words through different eyes, to recognize how they are formed, and therefore, how to pronounce them without problems.
Keeping these points in mind, it's very easy to start speaking German. And, that is what students must begin to do, to begin speaking and practicing, and not wait until they're able to speak perfectly, without grammatical mistakes. In the beginning, we have to start speaking without worrying about whether the article is right or not. There will be time to perfect details. This is the key to mutating into the German language, from the "difficult" to the "easy."
