The Spanish grammad is often considered more regular and predictable than English grammar.

The level of difficulty for learning Spanish can vary from person to person, and it may not necessarily be underestimated by English speakers. Spanish is often considered one of the most accessible languages for English speakers to learn due to several factors: 1. Cognates: Spanish and English share many cognates. 2. Phonetic writing: The words are generally pronounced as it is written. 3. Grammar: The Spanish grammad is often considered more regular and predictable than English grammar. However, the level of difficulty can still vary based on an individual's language learning experience, prior exposure to other languages and their dedication to the learning process. The perception of difficulty often depends on personal factors and the methods used for learning.
