Hardest things in Japanese
1. 漢字
2. は vs が

@karen One of the things I find the hardest in Japanese is actually the lack of spaces, I struggle to know where a word/particle ends and another begins.

@karen Well I "read" with kanji. But still, I struggle to know if a bunch of kanji together are a single word or many. Or if the hiragana are particles or part of the word conjugation. は vs が may be difficult to write/speak, but I don't think they are a huge problem for understanding. And kanji are difficult but it's easy to find what they mean online (and most of the things I read have furigana).

I'm talking about understanding Japanese. So this is probably not true for writing/speaking :).

@noeldemartin besides, nuance is a huge part of any language and you won't be able to recognize it without having knowledge of what meaning different particles convey in different contexts

@karen Yeah for sure, I guess at this point my Japanese level is just too low xD
