I have different opinion to two sentences below:

学 汉语 有趣。Studying Mandarin is interesting.

学 汉语 很 有趣。Studying Mandarin is very interesting.

I guess 汉语 can be both Mandarin or Cantonese, so if you want to indicate just Mandarin, then you better say 国语 or 普通话. (pick one, prefer 国语) 

For me , I would say:

学 国语/普通话 有趣。Studying Mandarin is interesting.

学 国语/普通话 很 有趣。Studying Mandarin is very interesting.
