    What about this? It's the same dialect.

    Very interesting IE language, unique among the other languages of the family.

    Would Albanian be easier to learn from a Romance language speaker perspective in comparison to a Slavic language or it would be equally as difficult?

    It's easier if your mother tongue is a Romance language. The Albanian language is influenced, to a some degree, by the Latin language because of Roman Empire.

    ''The Greek and Latin loans have undergone most of the far-reaching phonological changes which have so altered the shape of inherited words while Slavic and Turkish words do not show those changes. Thus Albanian must have acquired much of its present form by the time Slavs entered into Balkans in the fifth and sixth centuries AD [...] borrowed words from Greek and Latin date back to before Christian era [...] Even very common words such as mik "friend" (<Lat. amicus) or këndoj "sing" (<Lat. cantare) come from Latin and attest to a widespread intermingling of pre-Albanian and Balkan Latin speakers during the Roman period, roughly from the second century BC to the fifth century AD.''
