Which is easier to learn: Hebrew or Japanese?

i've been learning japanese for over 5 years and hebrew for about half a year now (biblical hebrew, though)

japanese has over 2000 kanji to learn, for being able to read a normal text... hebrew "only" has 22 letters, but the difficult thing is that (modern) hebrew doesn't have any vowels, which makes it really hard to read if you don't know the words...

the grammer of both languages is quite different to english...

i cannot really compare the ways of learning, though, because i only learned to read and translate (and not to speak) hebrew and i've already been to japan...

anyways, those languages are quite different, and so are the cultures where they are spoken. so maybe you should go with the culture you find more interesting...

Japanese has got the easiest grammar of the three(Hebrew, Arabic and Japanese) Japanese has got the easiest of pronunciation of three as well. Hebrew is easier to pronounce than Arabic I should add. When it comes to writing and reading Hebrew is easiest, then Arabic and then Japanese. I suggest you start with a compact Pimsleur course to get you motivated! ...and I have tried all three on an off for almost a year now and have gone back to Hebrew most of the time and it is just because I like the way it sounds. Bon Chance!

The fact the Japanese has three alphabets: One containing over 2000 Kanji symbols. I would say.. Go with Hebrew, first anyway :)

I personally like Japanese language. It would depend on your interest and career goal.

wow, rosetta stone is really expencive and not very good ...

if i were you i would download both of them for free and keep the money aside to go to what ever country you choose to go to so you can use what you learned :P

it depends what u love more.

if ur jewish hebrew would be easier.

i f ya really cant decide

buy 2 books,hebrew and japa

c what one u like best

also get a book a bout their cultures and c what you like.

they must be both challenging.
