To learn a foreign language is a difficult task.
And some languages seem to be specially invented in order to no one would know what they are talking about the media.
Language is a symbolic system consisting of sounds, words and sentences. Sign system of each nation is unique in terms of its grammatical, morphological, phonetic and linguistic features. Simple languages do not exist, as each of them has its own difficulties, which are found in the course of the study. Some of the most difficult languages in the world, which consists of 10 systems of signs.
Chinese language
Chinese is the most spoken language in the world. It is spoken by over a billion people. And he probably could claim the title of world’s language, if not its complexity.
The first challenge is to learn the characters. In the Chinese language more than 85000. Although it is actually not so scary to read the Newspapers enough “only” 3000. Drawing these characters is a separate art, which is not so easy to master. Without half a litre of Chinese tea you will not understand. Another trick in the pronunciation. The Chinese there are four tones that affect the meaning of words. Pronounce Chinese words with the Ukrainian intonation – and no one will understand. The impression is that to learn this language can only creative people with an aptitude for music and drawing.
An interesting feature of the Chinese language in that there is very little phonetic borrowing. That is, to the Chinese prefer to look for analogues in your language. So, the electricity is translated as “lightning”, computer – “lightning+brain” notebook, “notebook+zipper+brain”. So here is a Chinese puzzle.
Tagalog
Almost a quarter of the total population of the Philippines speak that Austronesian dialect. Tagalog is extremely difficult to study and remains an unattainable peak for most people in the world.
Norwegian

Indonesian

Dutch

Slovenian

Afrikaans

Korean
Korean is the official language of North and South Korea, spoken by over 80 million people worldwide. But to learn Korean Western man will be the task almost impossible as the logic of language is maximally different from the logic of the European dialects.
Japanese
This language is one of the most challenging in the world. Japan has long been an isolated country, whose culture has evolved without the influence of Western civilizations. But Japanese is closely connected with the Chinese language and burdened with additional rules, to understand which thoroughly can only be a carrier.
