I am a native spanish speaking. I tried once to learn french and found it a bit more difficult than spanish in all three aspects that you are asking about.

About pronunciation, I think american people are more familiarized with spanish words, both written and spoken, because of all the latin/hispanic people living there.

Besides, most of letters are always pronounced in the same way in spanish, with the only exceptions of "x" and "c". That is not so for french nor any other language I have studied.

I hope you find this useful.

Plus, you didn't ask, but still want to comment, that in most parts of the US, spanish will be more useful than french, since you already have 25% of your population being hispanic, and because there are a lot more spanish speaking countries (markets) than french speaking ones. Measured by number of people, number of countries or cultures, or by size of potential market, spanish always win.

Spanish is by far the easiest to spell and pronounce. As for verb conjugations, I think they're both the same; it's basically memorizing patterns and a few irregulars. As for sentence structure, they're both the same as well, because they're both romance languages. In this aspect they are both different from english in the same way, if you know what I mean. Personally, I think French is more fun, but Spanish is more useful where I live. I'm learning both.

They are very similar, since they are both "Romantic" languages, based on Latin.

However, you will have much more practical uses for Spanish than for French. The Spanish speaking population (worldwide) is growing, the French speaking population is shrinking.

Time to get with the 21st century and learn Spanish. French was the language of the 19th century.

They are very similar. There are many spanish words that now find themselves in the English language. There are less tenses in French, which makes it a bit easier to do. There is however the same difficulty in pronouncing and spelling.

I studied, talk and train each Spanish and French. I taught very younger secondary university boys (eleven years historic) who studied each Spanish and French in combination. That was once the curriculum in our university method. And so, I would not hesitate to advise each without delay. Both languages have many facets (chiefly grammar and idioms) in usual, and if lecturers are good informed and accurately grounded in international language guideline ways, they are able to emphasize the ones connections. In that approach, they're going to make finding out less difficult and first-class a laugh for the scholars. But If I needed to decide upon one earlier than the opposite, I'd do Spanish first, as it's the less difficult of the 2, chiefly in pronunciation. it isn't actual to mention that the 2 languages are not anything alike. They each derive from Latin/Romance roots and maintain many usual vocabulary phrases (customarily with handiest moderate alterations in inflections).

1. Spanish has very a easy sentence structure
2. Not sure about French...but the Spanish verb conjuction isn't that hard unless the verb is irregular which dosen't happen very often
3. SPANISH! The words are all spelt like they sound and sound like they are spelt
Hope this helps you.
