2. INTRODUCCIÓN
El aprendizaje de una segunda lengua en un mundo globalizado, permite al
estudiante un mejor posicionamiento a nivel social, laboral y profesional ya que
esto brinda una visión pluralista en un mundo cada vez más interdependiente, y a
su vez, le brinda herramientas para entrar en contacto con otras formas de pensar
y así desenvolverse en diferentes ámbitos culturales.

A native speaker of Spanish, for example, will find Portuguese much easier to learn
than a native speaker of Chinese, for example, because Portuguese is very similar to
Spanish, while Chinese is very different, so first language can affect learning a
second language. The greater the differences between the second language and
our first, the harder it will be for most people to learn. Many people answer that
Chinese is the hardest language to learn, possibly influenced by the thought of
learning the Chinese writing system, and the pronunciation of Chinese does appear
to be very difficult for many foreign learners. However, for Japanese speakers, who
already use Chinese characters in their own language, learning writing will be less
difficult than for speakers of languages using the Roman alphabet.
Some people seem to learn languages readily, while others find it very difficult.
Teachers and the circumstances in which the language is learned also play an
important role, as well as each learner's motivation for learning. If people learn a
language because they need to use it professionally, they often learn it faster than
people studying a language that has no direct use in their day to day life.
Apparently, British diplomats and other embassy staff have found that the second
hardest language is Japanese, which will probably come as no surprise to many, but
the language that they have found to be the most problematic is Hungarian, which
has 35 cases (forms of a nouns according to whether it is subject, object, genitive,
etc). This does not mean that Hungarian is the hardest language to learn for
everyone, but it causes British diplomatic personnel, who are generally used to
learning languages, the most difficulty. However, Tabassaran, a Caucasian language
has 48 cases, so it might cause more difficulty if British diplomats had to learn it.
Different cultures and individuals from those cultures will find different languages
more difficult. In the case of Hungarian for British learners, it is not a question of
the writing system, which uses a similar alphabet, but the grammatical complexity,
though native speakers of related languages may find it easier, while struggling
with languages that the British find relatively easy.
No language is easy to learn well, though languages which are related to our first
language are easier. Learning a completely different writing system is a huge
challenge, but that does not necessarily make a language more difficult than
another. In the end, it is impossible to say that there is one language that is the
most difficult language in the Word.
