It is a completely different experience. You have no similarities of vocabulary with your language. The structure of the language, based on syllable and not on words is different. Everything that you know is something that you have learnt. There are no shortcuts. On the other hand, Mandarin grammar is definitely easy, probably easier than German for instance.
