Like, English is a famously difficult language, and Spanish is supposed to be easier. But babies learn English or any language instinctually.

So do babies learn faster if the native language is easier, or do they acquire language at a constant rate depending on their brain development or whatever?

    I’m of the view that a bunch of digraphs would be reduced to single letters if Polish used the Cyrillic script. But some commenters noted that other letters don’t map that nicely. However, then again, variations of Cyrillic across Eastern Europe and Central Asia include a range of letters that aren’t in Russian, for example, so idk why Polish couldn’t use those or add a few of its own.
