Most difficult language is Ithkuil
I came to know that "Hungarian" is Nomads' standard answer for the question "What is the most difficult language in the world". With 35 cases of word construction, I don't want to argue (or learn it).
But I do like to be different. So. presenting... Ithkuil.
Albeit an artificial language invented by a linguist, it is by far the most complicated and efficient language ever developed. It is so complicated, however, that no one including the founder actually knows everything about it. As far as we know, all sentences become much much shorter when translated to Ithikuil
Example:
--------
Ithikuil: Oumpeá äx’ääļuktëx.
English: On the contrary, I think it may turn out that this rugged mountain range trails off at some point.
*I am in a "I hate Mondays" mood. Hence the completely useless post* ¶ 3:31 AM
