Compared to other Latin-based and Indo-European languages, Mandarin Chinese is relatively easier to learn. The primary reason for this is the simple Mandarin grammar which has no set subject-verb agreement. The second reason is that Mandarin words do not have various plural forms, conjugations, and tenses. Finally, the Mandarin numbering system is one of the simplest in the world and is possibly one of the reasons why the Chinese are so good in handling numbers.
