Actually, I think it is a lot tougher to use Chinese character than English. Because there is some noun or verd that are formed by the combination of chinese words. Some of them just sound the same and when they group together it is not the same. This of course is in writing.
After lack of using it for a while, I now am always subjected to use the wrong word which even tho sound similar but isn't the exact word in writing.

Chinese language does not have words. It is symbolic language. For each new object introduced/used, they have to create new symbol for it.

And, that's only half of my name!
How do they get anything accomplished in China? They must spend all their time writing!
Japan (and korea) uses the same characters. My gf can write faster using these characters than she can writing roman characters (she writes plenty fast).
I took 1 year of Japanese and these characters are very very easy to write and remember. There's thousands of them but they're very simular.
