I've seen videos of Japanese people REALLY struggling with English yet most English speakers seem to grasp speaking Japanese easier. Is it sort of downgrading languages when you speak Japanese? Without knowing the other language which has the advantage of learning?

English is probably one the most easiest languages to learn. Or THE easiest.

Try explaining this to a foreigner. :P

I think that both are pretty difficult to learn if you aren't immersed by the culture. There are so many different idioms and difficult things to learn in many languages.

Ironically, your post is riddled with grammar mistakes.

Please don't use the term "***," even to save space. It's offensive by definition. Thanks.
