@scarlett_sA popular social media post breaks down the estimated time required to learn the official languages of various European countries. For English speakers, the UK and Ireland top the list at just 12 weeks each. Romance languages like French, Spanish, Portuguese, and Italian are grouped together at 24 weeks, as are Germanic languages such as Dutch, Danish, and Norwegian. The data suggests that language difficulty varies across the continent, with some tongues taking significantly longer to master.
