Depends on how you look at it. Some reasons it's easier: You're constantly getting exposure. I don't think anybody would bother to learn English if it wasn't as big as it is due to the British Empire's expansion. English also lacks terribly confusing conjugation. This one is weird, because typological morphology (a scale on which languages are judged based on amount of meaningful parts to the whole word ratio (morpheme to word ratio) comes at a trade-off. English has no difficult conjugation, but is rather strict in its word order because of this. A lot of people grew up with Anglophone media, no matter where they are in the world, so they find the language easier. Some reasons it can be more difficult: Pronunciation. Especially the American accent, I've never heard a non-native speaker master this perfectly, but maybe that's just my experience. English possess, in particular, 3 rather difficult phonemes for some to master if they speak a language where those phonemes aren't present. Those are the two English "th" sounds, and the English "r" sound. There's also English's very loose relation to other languages. It's West Germanic at its core, but it sure doesn't act like your typical West Germanic language.

5:00 when he said "banbowe" i was so confused then i realized he couldnt say the vietnamese fadas, then i realized he said "Bánh Bò Huế" and i got even more confused cause thats not a food, "Bún Bò Huế" is the accurate name of the famous food in Vietnam

“Yao” in Cantonese means right, not left, and it does mean a lot of things, all about the tone
