So, is Japanese more difficult thatn Russian? I have been studying both for some time (mostly Russian, to be honest) but I find Russian to be significantly more difficult than Japanese, maybe it is because I haven't learned enough Japanese but (for example) I learned that there's (sometimes, I am not aware of any exceptions but there might be, or it might be backwards) no plural in Japanese so, you just say "three bee" and that's pretty much how you kind of "get" that you're speaking about "bees" while, in Russian, you have to alter the actual word to reflect that you're speaking in plural, and it also depends on the gender of the word to know which "plural" declination you should be using. Of course, there are three alphabets in Japanese, most difficult one being kanji, but it has always been an issue of memory, at least for me and, to be honest, I have a pretty good memory. I am not aware if this is the case for Japanese as well. For example, you changing the word to reflect the gender, the tense, the number of objects (plural or singular) and so on.
I ask this because I am pretty interested in both languages but, as I said, I have been giving more time to Russian because I think it is more difficult, but I might be wrong about it, would be good to know if I actually am wrong and should totally be more invested in Japanese. Would really appreciate your answers.
