*And for the last example I wrote accidentally "Ei meillä oo WiFi:ta" when I said outloud "Meillä ei oo WiFi:ta" the word order in this case doesn't matter as they both are correct and mean the exact same thing, it's just preference what word you say first, sorry for the confusion!!*
The rule says that when you have a word that ends on consonant or long and double vocal, you have to add -ta in partitive case, eg. maa -> maata, yö -> yötä, kerros -> kerrosta. And if it ends on one vocal, you add only -a, eg. tuoli -> tuolia, Suomi -> Suomea
So useful. Finnish is not easy to learn because it differs a lot from other language families but these videos helps me a lot. If I could suggest a topic spoken finnish is key imo. What does täks illaks, ootko, tää, tääl and so on mean. That would be really helpful. Along with the cases video ofcourse :)
Moi! Minä olen japanilainen. I've just started learning Finnish because I'm going to go to Finland this summer. Your videos are very interesting and helpful! Paljon kiitoksia!
Im learning a lot from your videos! Just one thing to say, your voice sounds most of your videos are too low, i barely hear them.. I converted some to mp3 tlfor me to listen while on travel, but even just watching it, your voice is too low. I hope you take positive on my comment😊
In contemporary English now, I think we would usually say "the WiFi password". A hundred years ago, this might have seemed strange, but we've been gradually transitioning toward routinely using multiple nouns in a single noun phrase. Historically, a noun phrase contained exactly one noun, accompanied by any number of modifiers, so we would've said something like "the password for the WiFi", if WiFi had existed back then. But these days you can even say something like "My cousin gets to travel all over the world. It's an airline flight attendant job perk." (five nouns in a row) without the sentence really standing out as particularly unusual. In fact, "It's one of the perks of the job for an attendant on flights for the airline" sounds stilted and awkward now. "WiFi's password" sounds a little odd to me, because WiFi is inanimate, and the English possessive is not really a true genitive case. This is not a hard and fast rule, and native speakers do sometimes use the possessive in a somewhat looser manner.
Hey if you have not already done so can you go over a few job / professions? More specifically how do you pronounce engineer? Doctor, teacher, and others would be cool too!
Do you offer any Skype lessons, If you not can you give me useful websites or materials that really helpful , I catch many many websites and am lost now. Please help me😊😢

If we ask like ( cloud I get wifi password please then how to say ) more politely?
Saisinko wifi-salasanan? or Voisinko saada wifi-salasanan. Those would be the most polite.
Maybe vaifai->vaifaita?

Ok makes sense, thanks for the clarification! :)
