I have taken French for quite some time and it is easy, I don't know if this is due to the fact that I am technically considered a "natural speaker" (that simply means my family speaks it at home) but most of my friends find it easy too. The first years of French I have heard are the hardest, the it gets easier. Spanish, which is the more popular language at my school, 5 classes of it to 1 class of French, I have heard that it tends to be very easy at the start and get considerably harder. They are learning the same concepts as us, but it is apparantly much more difficult. I would say to stick with the French, if you like it now, you'll love it later. It is structured very much like English and has few irregular verbs, and no noun cases. If you want a challenge, try Czech...it is exhausting...

English is considered the easiest language to learn. But speak of a foreign language for school, i have heard that the first few years of french are relatively easy. I took spanish, and that was really easy. If you are really interested in french, then you should go ahead and take the 2nd year. However, if you didn't like it, i would choose spanish.

If you're native language is English I've heard that Spanish is the easiest to learn. However, I've also been told that it's the most commonly flunked out of as well. Why? Because it's sufficiently easy that the classes tend to go faster.

If you find French easy, then continue on. You've already answered your own question with your own experience.

Sure, there is a phrase commenly used and totally make sense (if you know any of these languages: English, French, Spanish and Italian then it's easy to learn any of the other ones included b/c they all are made up of 2 basic languages: Greek and Latin)

Designed to be learned easily, Esperanto is the gateway to many other languages and cultures. Check the site below for information on Esperantos' value in learning other languages.

I frequently make this next statement, and I live by it.

"If you can't learn Esperanto, you can't learn any language."

At the very least, if you learn Esperanto, which by the way can lead to the enjoyment of meeting new friends and traveling to new places, you'll at least have that under your belt regardless of how far you decide to take any other languages.
It's not uncommon for a student of Esperanto to become fluent inside of a month, maybe less, if you've the desire.

The most depressing aspect of dealing with Esperanto is the constant unsupported claims that it has no value. As with anything else, it's use is dependant on how you decide to use it. With over 2,000,000 speakers in the world, there aren't too many places where you won't find it, you just need to look. The internet is the best place to start. The sites below are the best intitial places to investigate the language and it's history. (Yes, it has a history (119 years) and a culture.)

Where Esperanto stands to make its biggest success is in international communications, primarily at the UN and EU, where each respectively spends in excess of $500 million USD annually on translation services alone.

The World Esperanto Association (in Esperanto UEA: Universala Esperanto-Asocio) is the largest international organization of Esperanto speakers, with members in 119 countries (as of 2000) and in official relations with the United Nations and UNESCO. In addition to individual members, 95 national Esperanto organizations are affiliated to UEA.

Research and make your own conclusions.

Ĝis!

Sure, continue French-two. After you've mastered French, try learning another language such as Italian and Spanish . . . their derivatives are similar!

Esperanto. only about 1 percent of the population speaks it.

and every one who speaks it, speaks it as a second languages because it's so easy to learn.
