What are the most challenges you face when learning a language?
What sort of things you wish existed, or where easier?

Some corrections for you.
I corrected your thread title, as well, adding the auxiliary verb 'do', needed when posing a question, correcting a misspelling and adding 'when learning a language', since that better describes what the thread is about.

The challenges will differ depending on the person.
I personally think the largest challenge is getting our heads around the way an idea is expressed in another language. We cannot usually use a literal or direct translation from our source language into the target language. We have to instead learn what works in the other language.

It would be nice if there were an easy way to learn a foreign language, but no matter how you slice it, there is a considerable amount of work and time involved.

Welcome to you Doncruz. Not knowing what your native language is, I'll just mention the greatest challenge I faced in learning Spanish, and still face at times, is understanding rapid speech such as for example ¿Comtá? for ¿Cómo estás?

What Rusty states is correct. Learning the general m.o. of the language is a major task, unless the language you are learning is similar to your own. For example, trying to explain the function of the verb do when asking a question in English is difficult to do, because it is nonexistent in other languages. On the other, hand French and Spanish operate similarly, so learning should be easier.

I would like to add that prepositions and pronouns are often very difficult. Almost all foreign speakers confuse them. Native English speakers mess up English pronouns all the time.

The difference in direct and indirect object placement.
No se lo diga ("Not to him that tell") for what I was used to saying in English: "Don't tell him that"

My native language is spanish.

In my experience memorizing irregular verbs proved the most difficult. It must be a million times worse for those seeking to grasp the interminable baffling numbers of the inconsistencies of our dear old muddled-up English!

Yep :thumbsup:
One of the most horrific things to learn because they are so abstract and, for instance in German, there are basically no rules. Having been speaking Spanish daily for over a year now and still confuse "por" and "para" sometimes.
