Which of the South East Asian languages is the best to learn?
2007-01-05 06:59:05 · 11 answers · asked by Anonymous in Society & Culture ➔ Languages
Bahasa Indonesia (Indonesian) has more speakers than any other Southeast Asian nation. Also, it is similar to Malay, so you would be able to communicate with Malaysians. Indonesian is considered to be the easiest Asian language for English speakers to learn, because it uses the same alphabet and the structure is more similar than many.
If those sound like good qualities, then perhaps Indonesian is the best for you.

Chinese, japaneses, and koreans are east asians. Vietnamese, cambodians, laotians, filipinos, thais, and malaysians are south east asians. I can easily tell the difference between east asians and southeast asians, but not between their different nationalities.

None.
The languages most often used will be either Chinese or English
thats to influence of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN).

Best would be the one that you are planning to use. There is a lot of trade taking place with Vietnam.
