After twenty years of working on natural language processing, I am
familiar with no research that shows that English is inherently more
complex to process than any other language. In fact, in modern
approaches, the single biggest factor is the amount of data available
for training. This is especially so for statistical machine
translation. This often makes English easier to process than other
languages, due simply to the overwhelming availability of training
material.
