Japanese is phonetically the easiest and can be recreted in 50 sounds according to the Macne series vocals. So at its bare basics, the entire languageis made up of that. By the time their done with making it more complex though, there are something like 500+ sounds per pitch. English vocaloids also have 2,500 per pitch. The grand total of sounds for both languages when added up is something like 1,500+ sounds for JApanese and 8,000+ for English.

This is what a lot of UTAU users DON'T take into account when they come up with their Vocaloid Vs UTAU debates...

As for which language is still more complex, for now I'd go with English, though Adept-eX might have more of a idea of this. English blends words and puts emphysis to make things sound different. Stressing is currently found in only the spanish language out of the 5 we have and is not used nearly as often as the English language uses it. All I know is Japanese and English are at different ends of the spectrum n complexicity so either way, so at least oyu have a starting point.
