What's the easiest language for an English speaker to learn?

I could say British, but you probably don't want a bad joke about two peoples related by ancestery but divided by a common language.

German is a form of English. I have a hard time with Proper English as my native language, but picked up German easily. Many German and English words are the same, but German is pronounced gutterally so the word sounds different. Many other German words are two or more words connected instead of being prounounced individually. Also German pronounces all of the letters in a word, there are no silent letters in German. So a world like Knight would sound very different when pronounced in German because each letter would be pronounced. Also, German has not changed since Bismark formalized the language so some words are old English. Such as Apothecary for Drug Store or Apothic for Pharmacist, and other old English words you don't commonly think of.

Most English speaking people can pick up conversational German very easily.

I've heard it's German because the languege structure is similar, and so many words of sound alike.Plus the german vocabulary is simple and they dont have a million words for the same thing like English.

Money, then Archaic Modern English like what Shakespear used, then Middle English, then Anglosaxen aka Old English, then Low German, then either German or Spanish.

I say Spanish. I took French and it had these weird things I never could understand or even say. I literally cant say a word in French now.

Spanish or French.
