Linguistically; Finnish or Greek, then Russian, then German or French, Italian, Turkish and Spanish as the easiest.

Grammatically, Turkish is very hard. "I READ YOU A BOOK" is basically "I YOU A BOOK READ" in Turkish. So confusing.

Out of those I've only learnt German, French, a tiny bit of Italian and Ancient Greek (I don't know if you are referring to modern or ancient greek).
I find German the easiest then French. I like Ancient Greek but I don't think its easy. I've only had a few lessons of Italian and it seems very interesting but I don't know how difficult it would be.

You'd put Turkish as the second easiest?

How can you order them unless you tried to learn all 8?!

Albeit only on Duolingo, but the ones I enjoy most I will begin formal training on in my spare time.
