I noticed though that Japanese in a certaing way is easier. I can already read a Japanese book faster than I could read an English book after the same amount of time of study (lol still 1/2 hours per page ). Kanji help much more than reading all words written in our alphabet. A kanji which suggests the meaning of the word helps much more than hoping to find a word in English which sound like a word in my language.
Yeah I feel that Kanji would help alot, is Italian your first language??
