I was just going through with my vision which alphabets would be harder for me, I could probably learn the Greek alphabet and the Cyrillic alphabet if I really tried. And yeah Arabic and Chinese/Japanese would be virtually impossible for me to learn.

Right now for me I have a lot of time on my hands as I don't work at the moment, so I needed a hobby and I decided to take up a language, it's just a money issue now when it comes to buying books, and finding books for absolute beginners, ones that say "for beginners" may not be for the absolute beginner. There is an app I found that reads articles to you in German, it is for a more advanced learner but if you click on the words/sentences/paragraphs it shows the English translations. It would be a good way besides music to get one to hear what words sound like especially as you're reading them. Some of the German bands I like will put videos they make on YouTube with English subtitles, but I haven't really watched them, well one band I do. From hearing the words in German when I listen to music or on Duolingo, I'm getting better at pronouncing words that I see that I don't know. I also found a photo on Google image of how the letters in the alphabet are pronounced in German so that helps a little, my confusion is the letter "S" can be pronounced 2 different ways sometimes with a "z" sound and sometimes with a more "sh" sound so that's confusing on word pronunciation especially when some "s" and "z" words sound similar and "w" and "v" are virtually the same sound, like why? So that makes hearing words even more confusing, though I'll learn how to distinguish words that start with a "w" and "v" from each other and some words that start with an "s" from words that start with a "z". It'll take time to learn.

Thanks for the YouTube video suggestion, I'll check it out.
