I saw the first word on the screen and I was like, "uh. Yeah. NO." Good for him! I'd be stumbling over myself. I really want to see you do Korean words now.
Made my friend have a go at pronouncing some very long Finnish words and tongue twisters haha! Certainly are challenging, even I got them wrong a few times xD
Ok I'm now officially convinced that Finnish is the hardest language to learn in the world lol! My eye balls popped out when the first word came on the screen 😂 Where does one even start lol! Seriously respect for every Finnish speaking person right now! 😊👍
I would argue that languages like Chinese and Korean would be harder for an English speaker, since you have to learn the whole orthography on top of the language itself. Of the European languages, though, Finnish, Russian, and some of the more obscure island languages (Greenlandic, Icelandic, Faroese, etc) are quite difficult as well. I learned Welsh, Russian, German, Polish, Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, and Icelandic while doing a study abroad program in university, and I'm in the process of learning Finnish now. Finnish is around the same difficulty as I remember Polish and Russian being, and Icelandic was pretty difficult to learn how to speak out loud because it has some pretty weird sounds. German has some pretty nasty words too, like Rindfleischetikettierungsuberwachungsaufgabenubertragungsgesetz :P
May I am wrong but it seems not so hard to me :-) Of course there would be a problem with accent but the way of reading words is very similar to what we have in Polish (excluding special letters).
Videos on mahtavia :) ne piristävät kivasti aina päivää/iltaa tai millon niitä nyt tuleekaan katottua. Olisko mitään ideaa, että tekisitte Youngin kanssa videon jossa kuuntelisitte suomalaisia tai korealaisia biisejä?
Finnish pronunciation is kind of like Japanese, where one letter/character has only one sound. However, those Scandinavian letters are difficult for foreigners at first.
that video was good. when are you going to try korean? i have tried to learn korean but i don't wind good webside or video to learn it in finnish. do more videos with him(i worgot his name sorry) finnish isn't that hard. couple of my friends tried to speak finnish and they got succeed on it. i'm also finnish...
I do have a video where I try Korean tongue twisters, give it a watch if you're interested! :D And we will make more videos together, but he had to go to the army so I won't see him for 2 years :(
Thanks, enjoyed that. Spelled same backwards and forwards = palindrome. ... and "j" in Finnish (and many N Europe languages) is the "y" sound in English. So it is phonetic, as is spelt. Just not same sound as English. Cough Plough Chough Thorough.
You should give Hungarian a try. It's "slightly" related to Finnish and is also an agglutinative languague so you can a lot of long words. Hungarian in a gramatical sense is like Finnish and Estonian but with double the amount of sounds.
My Welsh housemate's party trick is saying Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch. I can say the first three syllables haha!
Wow. Finnish palindromes. I think I can actually pronounce saippuakivikauppias after practicing for a while. I'll let my wife be the judge. She doesn't hold back anything.
No way! r u kidding? what kind of witchery is it! those are not words! hahaha! nice video! greetings from Mexico!
haha xD

+SeeKaysee Hahah yeah I was like "how is this gonna fit on the screen?" Yep, we filmed it already will be up soon xD
I'm curious, is that word difficult to pronounce for even someone who is fluent?
***** Sort of, just have to make sure you read it carefully :P
