I don't know who started this rumor that chinese is especially challenging, and lots of chinese people certainly believe it, but the truth is it ain't that hard. Chinese grammar is pretty simple and the written language is more systematic and predictable than most people think. After living in Taiwan for 1.5 years I speak well enough to explain fine points of english grammar to my students and read well enough to decipher most movie subtitles.
