   Probably braille! Having to run your fingers over the dots and figure out what letter it is seems really hard to me.

   First off, braille isn’t a language, it’s a code, its English (or whatever, French, German, Spanish…) that has been encoded, the same as putting it into morse code. Aside from some abbreviations and omissions that may be included to save space (braille takes up a lot more space than your standard size 12 font) it is essentially English so it will be very easy to learn, when compared to a whole new language.

   As for English vs sign language(s) it depends on many factors, the type of learner you are for one (some people are just naturally visual learners…), but the structure of your native language would also play a part. If the structure of your native language is very close to that of the particular sign language you are trying to learn but vastly different to the structure of English you will obviously find the sign language easier, and vice versa.
