plus, you can make up words that aren't technically considered a part of the english language but follow precedented word formation, and then stab the idiots who tell you it's not a word.

that's only because the dictionary organizations add BS slang terms with a 1.3 year lifespan to the dictionary forever, like bootylicious.
No, that is not the only reason. Short-term slang does not account for 75% of the language.

If you think English sounds like a hard language to learn, try one with an entirely new alphabet like Russian, Greek, Gaelic, or Cymraeg

English is quite unanimously the hardest language to learn, because of all the broken rules and pronunciation and stuff. Learning a language with a different alphabet would be hard for anyone to learn, but then English has all these other complications.

On an unrelated note, Russian's alphabet is only half different; it's half Greek and half Roman.

Welsh alphabet is as follows:

a b c ch d dd e f ff g ng h i j l ll m n o p ph r rh s t th u w y

But then, this is what happens when you romanacise a non-roman based language. i mean, just look at Czech :P

A different alphabet isn't something that makes a language much more difficult to learn. Really it's only a hill you have to climb over at the beginning, and then you get used to it and it's like learning any other language.

Spanish alphabet has basically the same letters only some new letter such as ll rr and that n with the curly line on top of it.

Same for german alphabet. New letter such as the schafel s which stands for ss and a o u with the umlauts on them.

they don't really count as letters, though. (except for the ß)
