I can hardly speak let alone sing 😂
Mandarin is complex and a nightmare to learn. But it's kid's play when compared to Arabic.
Discussion
What's your native language? And how many languages have your tried picking up?
I speak four languages fluently and a beginner in another two.
My native language is Arabic.
Beautiful! Besides your mother tongue, what is your favorite language to converse in?
I can't really choose as I enjoy them all immensely.
💯 understandable!
How long did it take you to be able to at least hold a basic conversation in ASL?
For me, I could hold basic conversations within the first month... and obtained "near native fluency" by year 4. Prior to that, I was technically "fluent", working as an interpreter,, but wasn't able to fully express my personality in totality with the same ease as I do w/English. By year 4, it all came together!
How difficult do you consider this language to be?
🤔Well, ASL lacks tone + written expression... so, that may make it easier for some people.
But, as ASL is as rich as other spoken languages, the ease/difficulty in learning it is a bit subjective. (ie I take to signed languages easier than oral/rural languages [I think my 👂are broken!])
