Say it in Finnish
Finnish. The language is like the Finns themselves – complex and original. Nothing to do with Russia or Sweden, despite their proximity.
The Finnish language is fairly easy to pronounce: it has one of the most phonetic writing systems in the world, with only a small number of simple consonants and relatively few vowel sounds.
But when we get to grammar…Finnish is radically different from English (or any other language), making it a rather difficult language to master. Finns love to tease foreigners with stories of compound words a mile long and verbs with seventeen suffixes tacked on. Basically, everything in a sentence inflects to indicate who is doing what, why, when and in what way, so constructing even a simple sentence requires lot of effort.
But fear not – sometimes a few words are all you need.
