Abstract |
Japanese is considered one of the hardest languages to learn for English speakers. The effort of studying Japanese is considered to be worthwhile, as Japanese has 127 million native speakers, which makes it the eighth most-commonly spoken language in the world, ahead of German, French, and Italian. |
