Are there languages that conjugate verbs differently based on he/she instead of just a general usted? That would be untoldly confusing.

Russian does in the past tense but I find it to be a really simple change

Example: He/She/It/They were reading

Он читал

Она читала

Они читали

It is confusing when you learn it.

Spanish can be hard to learn when it comes to conjugations, but pronunciation of words is way easier than English.

While spanish doesnt have different conjugations for he/she it does for articles.

Masculine article: El clima (the weather)

Feminine article: La Escuela (the school)
