I speak four languages, which would be the easiest as my fifth?
My native language is albanian, I lived in Greece for 5 years and learned to speak greek fluently while I was a kid but then moved to Canada and learned french and english fluently. Ideally I would like to learn all the following languages eventually (at least that's the goal): spanish, russian, mandarin, korean, japanese, arabic, brazilian portuguese, hindi/urdu, vietnamese. Hopefully I can learn them all in a few years but as of right now I'm most interested in korean. However it's very difficult. I've learned a lot of vocabulary and watched movies but I can't form sentences needed for a conversation (nobody to talk to), at best I can understand what someone is saying by the vocabulary used. My question is, which languages are the easiest and which are the hardest for me to transition to considering the languages I already speak. I would like it if you guys could put them in order from easiest to hardest based on your past experiences or opinions (for me of course not yourselves), thanks!
