I don't mind the measure words so much because you can always use the generic one and people will understand, it's the tones that really mess me up.
I find the tones are hard, but I find it's easier to remember them within a sentence than for individual worlds. Good news is if you mess it up, context still makes it possible to figure out what you meant.
Dumplings vs sleep....it still gets me
lol there are just so many words that basically sound the same and mean completely different things
