Grammar for Chinese is very simple, with no conjugation of verbs. But
learning the first 1,000 characters can be a pain. :) For those not
used to tonal languages, pronunciation is often challenging.

Add on top of that - there are a wide variety of computer input
methods for Chinese, so sitting down in front of the random computer
may or may not allow you to enter Chinese they way you're used to.

But for zh:I was surprised to see the bulk of contributions coming
from HK, and so many from NL...

zhwiki (1.5%): HK: 28.6%, TW: 25.9%, US: 13.7%, NL: 8.2%, CN: 6.1%,
DE: 3.6%, BE: 2.3%, CA: 2.0%, FR: 1.3%, MO: 1.2%, JP: 1.2%, all
others: 5.9%
