How Hard Is It to Learn It?<\/h2>\n<p>\u201cIs German hard to learn?\u201d This is one of the most frequently asked questions by students interested in learning German. We wish we could say that it\u2019s not difficult at all, that it\u2019s an incredibly easy language for everyone, but unfortunately the answer isn\u2019t as simple as that.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, learning German (or any other language) is <strong>neither easy nor hard<\/strong>. It\u2019s a process that can go smoother for some, and have more bumps for others. The factors that determine how difficult learning German will be for you include your <strong>reasons for learning<\/strong>, your <strong>motivation<\/strong>, your <strong>time commitment<\/strong>, your <strong>learning style<\/strong> and preferences, and of course, the <strong>quality of the course<\/strong> or learning method you choose. Even the most difficult language on the planet can be easy to learn if it is presented and taught in the right way!<\/p>\n<p>On the bright side, this also means <strong>you have some control <\/strong>over how difficult learning German is \u2014 be clear on your reasons, use them to fuel your motivation, set aside enough time to dedicate to your studies, take advantage of your preferred learning style, and above all, find a <strong>high-quality language course<\/strong>, and learning to speak fluent German will feel like a piece of cake.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"aligncenter wp-image-61686\" src=\"https:\/\/global-exam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/multiple-doors.jpg\" alt=\"multiple doors\" width=\"400\" height=\"213\" srcset=\"https:\/\/global-exam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/multiple-doors-200x107.jpg 200w, https:\/\/global-exam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/multiple-doors-300x160.jpg 300w, https:\/\/global-exam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/multiple-doors-400x213.jpg 400w, https:\/\/global-exam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/multiple-doors-600x320.jpg 600w, https:\/\/global-exam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/multiple-doors-768x409.jpg 768w, https:\/\/global-exam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/multiple-doors-800x426.jpg 800w, https:\/\/global-exam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/multiple-doors-1024x546.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/global-exam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/multiple-doors-1200x639.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/global-exam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/multiple-doors.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><a id=\"post-61684-_ssl8nt2d4hrx\"><\/a>Is It Worth Learning German? Pros and Cons of Learning German<\/h2>\n<p>Have you ever wondered <a href=\"https:\/\/global-exam.com\/blog\/en\/general-german-how-long-does-it-take-to-learn-german-tips-to-do-it-fast\/\">how long does it take to learn German?<\/a> What about if learning German is worth all the time and effort it will take? After all, you don\u2019t want to spend your time on a language that won\u2019t help you down the road, right? Well, rest assured that there are many excellent reasons to learn German.<\/p>\n<p>If we look at the numbers, German ranks as the <strong>11th most spoken language in the world<\/strong>, with around <strong>75 million native German speakers<\/strong> around the globe, and about 130 million speakers total. After English, it\u2019s the <strong>second most widely spoken Germanic language<\/strong>, and one of the most commonly used languages in <strong>Europe<\/strong> and in the world of <strong>business<\/strong>. So if you\u2019re wondering if you\u2019ll ever even have the opportunity to use your German, you definitely will!<\/p>\n<p>What might those opportunities be? Well, that\u2019s entirely up to you \u2014 German will <strong>help you in nearly every sphere of your life<\/strong>. If you\u2019re looking to<strong> give your career a boost<\/strong>, learning German will certainly help you do that. Employers often look for foreign languages when they screen resumes, and with one of the most useful languages listed on yours, your resume will be sure to catch the hiring manager\u2019s eye.<\/p>\n<p>If, on the other hand, you\u2019re looking to further your studies, speaking German fluently will open doors to many top-ranked <strong>study<\/strong> <strong>programs in German-speaking countries<\/strong>. You will also be able to learn from a much wider range of literature, thanks to being able to study and read in German.<\/p>\n<p>And even if you put work and studying aside, learning to speak German is a great choice for your own <strong>personal development<\/strong>. With German being an official language in not just <strong>Germany<\/strong>, but also <strong>Austria<\/strong>, <strong>Switzerland<\/strong>, <strong>Belgium<\/strong>, and <strong>Luxembourg<\/strong>, being fluent in German opens up a world of opportunities for <strong>traveling, meeting new friends, <\/strong>and<strong> discovering new cultures<\/strong>.

Brief Comparison<\/h2>\n<p>Along with English, French and German are two of the most highly sought after and commonly spoken languages in the world, so it\u2019s no surprise that people often get stuck when trying to decide which foreign language they\u2019d like to learn. The deciding factor often ends up being, \u201cWhich one is easier to learn \u2014 French or German?\u201d Well, unfortunately, there\u2019s no easy answer to this question either.<\/p>\n<p>French and German do have similarities, but they ultimately have <strong>different roots<\/strong> \u2014 while French is a <strong>Romance language<\/strong>, German, just like English, is a <strong>Germanic language<\/strong>. This means that the answer to which one will be easier for you may depend a great deal on what your native language is and whether it is a Romance or a Germanic language.<\/p>\n<p>The good news for English speakers is that you will find <strong>many things in common between English and German<\/strong>, and therefore German is quite easy to learn for native English speakers. However, we cannot reduce the answer to just that, as there are many factors which influence how hard German is to learn, such as the ones we have mentioned above.<\/p>\n<p>If you are lost, you can check out our article on <a href=\"https:\/\/global-exam.com\/blog\/en\/general-german-learning-german-for-beginners-what-are-the-basics-to-start-with\/\">what are the basics to start with for learning German?<\/a><\/p>\n<h2><a id=\"post-61684-_5doxpmon1tf4\"><\/a>Should I Learn French or German?

Why are you learning a foreign language? Is it to boost your career prospects? To be able to study abroad? To travel and meet new people? To develop your brain? These are all valid reasons, but a particular language may be <strong>much more useful<\/strong> for some reasons than others, depending on <strong>what exactly you\u2019d like to accomplish<\/strong>. If you have a particular place in mind that you\u2019d like to move to, work in, study in, or travel in, take into account <strong>which language is most spoken there<\/strong>.

Listen to the <strong>sounds<\/strong> of the languages: which one sounds more pleasant to your ears?

Of course, this doesn\u2019t necessarily mean that learning French is automatically difficult for you, but if you\u2019d like to learn a language that will <strong>feel more familiar<\/strong> in its structure and vocabulary, then German may be a good choice for you.<\/p>\n<h2><a id=\"post-61684-_ow6uvvo7yxg0\"><\/a>Is It a Good Idea to Study French and German at the Same Time?<\/h2>\n<p>If you can\u2019t decide if you should learn French or German, a compromise may be to try learning them both at the same time. There are certainly arguments both in favor and against this, and you will find many language learners for whom learning the two languages together has worked perfectly, and others for whom it was a total catastrophe. So unfortunately, once again, we are not able to give you a definite answer to whether you should learn both French and German at the same time, or choose just one language to study first.<\/p>\n<p>However, we can give you a few tips on what you should consider to determine whether learning both German and French simultaneously might be a good idea for you, personally.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"aligncenter wp-image-61688\" src=\"https:\/\/global-exam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/three-doors.jpg\" alt=\"multiple doors with question marks on them\" width=\"400\" height=\"267\" srcset=\"https:\/\/global-exam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/three-doors-200x133.jpg 200w, https:\/\/global-exam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/three-doors-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/global-exam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/three-doors-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/global-exam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/three-doors-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/global-exam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/three-doors-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/global-exam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/three-doors-800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/global-exam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/three-doors-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/global-exam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/three-doors-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/global-exam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/three-doors.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><a id=\"post-61684-_g1t55bwbbgyh\"><\/a>Have you already learned a foreign language?<\/h3>\n<p>If it\u2019s your <strong>first time learning a foreign language<\/strong>, it might be a good idea to <strong>pick just one<\/strong> to start with. If you\u2019re a seasoned polyglot and already have one or several other foreign languages under your belt, then you\u2019re probably more prepared to tackle two foreign languages at the same time. It all depends on your <strong>comfort level<\/strong>, experience, and how well you know your <strong>personal language learning preferences<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3><a id=\"post-61684-_c2yfvv3t1fh1\"><\/a>Will you need to use them both together?<\/h3>\n<p>Learning both French and German at the same time may be a quite good idea if you will end up needing to use them together <strong>in the same situations<\/strong>. For example, if you work in an international team with both French speakers and German speakers, you might like to learn both German and French together in order to <strong>progress equally with both<\/strong> and gradually start practicing them both at work without putting one on hold for the other. This will allow you to simultaneously learn words for the same concept in several languages and find connections between the two languages.<\/p>\n<h3><a id=\"post-61684-_8kecz1j69w0w\"><\/a>Is your native language really similar to either French or German?<\/h3>\n<p>If you are already fluent in a language that is very similar to French (such as <strong>Spanish, Italian, or Portuguese<\/strong>) or to German (such as <strong>Dutch, Danish, Swedish, or Norwegian<\/strong>), that language may feel extremely easy for you to learn. The similarities between your native language and the foreign language will make the language learning process much easier, <strong>freeing up more of your attention<\/strong> to dedicate to learning another foreign language at the same time.<\/p>\n<h3><a id=\"post-61684-_1bsh3v4bzc4n\"><\/a>How good are you at memorizing?<\/h3>\n<p>Learning a foreign language requires <strong>learning many new words<\/strong> \u2014 so it goes without saying that learning two foreign languages requires learning even more new words. If studying new vocabulary is extremely hard for you, you may want to focus on fewer words at a time and <strong>not overwhelm yourself<\/strong>. However, if you are a natural at memorizing, then it may actually be beneficial for you to learn the same word in several languages so that you can <strong>draw similarities and differences<\/strong> between the two languages in your mind.<\/p>\n<h2><a id=\"post-61684-_j1iokhylrx4w\"><\/a>Learn French and German Online With Global General<\/h2>\n<p>Whether you choose to learn German, to learn French, or even to learn them both at the same time, Global General can provide you with everything you need to kick start your language learning journey and <strong>follow it through until you\u2019ve successfully reached your goal<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Global General is an e-learning method developed by the website GlobalExam.
