/^t/There are some arguments that decide that English may be considered an easy language. One of them may be the grammar. When I started to learn English I got the impression that the English grammar was very simple. I am not the only person who thought so. Many people that I talked to about it thought the same. In my opinion the grammar of English is quite simple especially at beginning and pre-intermediate levels. The situation changes once you reach intermediate and, especially, advanced levels. Then the grammatical structures begin to become more and more complex and the level of difficulty can be compared with other languages. Still, I think that, in this respect, English may be regarded as simpler than Italian or German, for example.
