Do babies learn languages at different rates depending on how hard the language is?

Yes, to an extent, but I don't think it has to do with grammar as much as pronunciation. Norwegian (bokmål) and danish are almost indistinguishable when written down, but spoken Danish is pronounced very weirdly (a lot of swallowed and mumbled consonants that causes it to sound like the speaker has gotten drunk on their way back from getting a root canal and is currently struggling to eat a hot potato). Despite Norwegian having a massive range of regional dialects, Norwegian kids learn to speak a lot quicker than danish kids. Largely because danish kids just don't understand what they're hearing for longer. The Danes have to subtitle their own TV programmes because they don't really understand each other. It's a fucking mess. Norwegian kids understand Swedish before danish kids understand danish.

Here is a short documentary on the danish language
