>All languages are easy to learn if you have to learn them.

I'm pretty sure if you were to hold a gun against my head until I get fluent in french you'll leave me alone far earlier than if I had to learn an Asian language with Chinese characters.

Learning Chinese characters is just busywork, that's all there is to it. It might be easy but it will still take forever.
