No accent marks to guide pronouncing or meaning. It's all context based. If you don't know what's being said, you might not know how to say it. Also English is quite free in borrowing words from any other language, which is probably quicker than coming up with huge compound words that are used in related germanic languages.
Once you get past the context part, it's not that hard. Since in some regards it seems to have less rules about syntax, nor do you have to worry about words being "masculine/feminine/neuter" and stuff like that.
