Some languages are objectively easier than others, at least in part.

Latin languages like Italian, Spanish and French have literally dozens of conjugations[0] where English usually handles all tenses and quantity with "will, would, did, had, -ed" plus a handful of irregular verbs, which themselves have two words to learn each (unlike Italian irregular verbs [1])

Spanish and Italian are only easier to read and write since their spelling is regular for the most part.
