What European language has the easiest sounds? and please don't tell me "all sounds are equally difficult" cuz you know they're not, so what language would you say has the easiest sounds?
What European language has the easiest sounds?
probably Finnish (which is not an Indo-european language) and modern Greek
Estonian - enormous amount of vocals AEIOUÕÄÖÜ and almost all possible combinations of AE AI AO...EA EI, etc. And as if that wasn't enough - three degrees of phonemes length! Many I know have described it as sounding like a language from a fairytale.
ok man I was asking for the one with the easiest sounds, not the hardest.
Must be Italian. Anyone can master the pronunciation in like...2 minutes...?
I agree that Italian is the easiest one. At least for me whose native language is Indonesian.
What about Esperanto?
It's perfectly phonetic, but I guess I could never have learnt how to speak Esperanto without knowing English sounds. /ch/, /sh/, /r/ and a couple of common Latin letter voiced consonants (b, g, d) are all difficult (not for me, but others).

We've had this discussion before and Spanish if way easier than Italian, get over it.
