Must admit that Arabic is extrely difficult to learn unlike many other languages.

I suppose like any other things has to appeal to you. It did n't appeal to me since it didn't sound musical like say Italian, Spanish or French say.....So after a few years I could understand some but never managed to speak it, whereas I spent only 6 months in Italy a few years ago and after that I could understand and speak it much much more than Arabic.

Having said that I suppose Arabic is hard for brain.

This is my own personal experience. Others may not agree.
