Well, I have to praise the English system of always using "The" and having a "a/an"-system that actually makes sense.


...but my bias is far too strong. Svenska äger! (Swedish FTW!)

But English also has an incredibly arbitrary system for prepositions: In, on, for, from, and at are all very hard for non-English speakers to grapple with.

Really? Well, at least I had no problems learning English prepositions. Can't say I have seen others struggling with it either, on noticeable levels.

That's so minor compared to the struggles one has to go through when learning some more complicated languages.

English is very easy in general (compared to most other stuff I've seen), I'll give it a plus for that.

English is the easiest Germanic language and its a lot easier to learn then the second easiest Germanic language German which used to be my native language.  Its also a lot easier then Spanish which I studied for a couple of years.

German and Spanish are generally considered much easier to learn than English though.

In theory maybe, but in reality no way German and Spanish have much more complicated grammar rules then Engish.  Not to mentioned that most words in German and Spanish are a lot harder to pronounce.
