Same. I got curious after hearing from a German teacher on TH-cam that Finnish has 15 different cases. Bless native Finnish speakers who can learn fluent English / vice versa. So very different.
We've done this in school today, but this may be what got you to the Finnish language from a Serbian song, you see, the Serbian and Finnish language have 30 letters in their alphabets and are both phonetic languages, which is why even tho they don't understand each other not one bit,they can read the text of the other with no problem
Exde+ Yes and no. Finnish is rather flexible language and pretty often you can find ways to express yourself in a manner that is pretty familiar to English speakers. A good example would be the use of personal pronouns. For example, if you want to say "my doll", you can say either "nukkeni" or "minun nukke". Also the agglutination looks far more intimidating than it really is. Of course when you have suffixes for personal pronouns, locations, things such as "in order to" and "I wonder if", astonishment, for emphasizing the lack of alternatives and for politeness you'll inevitably end up with some ridiculous amount of possible combinations. However, you don't have to memorize every single possible combination. Just learn the meaning of different suffixes and the rules how to link them together. A quick example: "nukkuakseni" (In order to sleep myself) nukkua = to sleep kse = in order to ni = myself/my "Onpa paljon kukkia!" (Ooh, there are lots of flowers!) on = is pa = ooh (this suffix can be used to express astonishment along with a few other things) paljon = lots of kukk(a) = flower ia = forms partitive plural // en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partitive_case // somewhat similar to English "-s" in this context
"-han" is also pretty cool suffix. "Onpahan paljon kukkia" (Ooh, there are far more flowers than I expected, although in these quantities I find them slightly annoying." en.wiktionary.org/wiki/-han#Finnish
Well, if you heard bad things about Hungary , we are just bad people then I guess :D Shame on us, News King (or Queen, you can choose.). All good here, to be honest.

Zsolt Monostori Hi everyone :) Zsolt, basically you only insert your name in the place of 'Paula' in the example. "Minun nimeni on Zsolt." "My name is Zsolt." Greetings from, not Paula, but Päivi ;) Team FinnishPod101.com
I've looked all over and there's not a "Michael Allen" version either. It's either I DON'T introduce myself in Finland or I introduce myself as "Paula Laamanen"....hhmm...
Learn Finnish with FinnishPod101.com Thank you Päivi, I was totally depressed and nearly gave up on Finnish, but you've saved the day! So I insert my name in the place of "Paula" in the example (leaving Laamanen wherever it is) so it will eventually become "Minun nimeni on Zsolt Laamanen" then. Thank you! I am now one of the many in the huge Laamanen family! :-)
A bit more information for those interested: In that given sentence, "minun" - "my" is optional; the syntax works alone with just "nimeni" aswell. "Nimeni" is a noun with a possesive suffix attached to it: and that is "-ni". "-ni" is first person singular form of possesive case; it gives the function of possesion as the name suggests - and it can be also used to torture the Knights who say Ni. To make a comparison, let's see how "Your name is John Smith" works: "Sinun nimesi on John Smith". See? The proverb has changed to 'sinun' instead of 'minun', and the possesive suffix is now '-si'. These have the same functions but used in second person syntaxes; You can omit 'sinun' and just say 'nimesi on'; the possesive suffix already implies possesion. Hence, 'sinun' 'your' isn't neccesary.
I love the intonation it’s super enchanting. My mom is/knows Finnish and didn’t use it plus my dad is from the Philippines and never spoke tagalog so I feel very disconnected from my heritage. It makes me happy to hear this language. I can’t bring myself to learn something like Spanish because it’s uniteresting, whereas I don’t have application for learning a language such as Finnish.
Clear and concise, I like it. However "minun nimeni on" translates to "my name is". You can also say "minä olen" which translates to "I am". Much easier for beginners and I hear "minä olen" much more often than the longer version. Keep things accurate.

Thanks for this video!

FinnishPod101 I love your lessons, learning Finnish as a native English speaker has been a nightmare. But one day I'd like to emigrate there and your lessons are helping me with this, so thank you :)
I was in hungary for 2 months and i also couldn't understand anything people were talking. but I have to say, I really heard very familiar words and pronounciation many times I was listening people speaking hungarian. for examble hungarian word "kuka" sounds identical to finnish, even though finnish word "kuka" means a different thing. also hungarian word "kocka" is pronounced very similar way as finnish word "kotka". there are lots of similarities with the little words and in hungarian the word also has different forms: virág, virágom -> kukka, kukkani. and yes, I have to say all hungarians pronounce finnish perfectly and same with finnish pronouncing hungarian. it's interesting I think.:)
My finnish friend is teaching me all the finnish greetings: I can say perkele, vittu, perse, olut Etc. But finns are very shy because they look at me with a strange look when I greet them and dont reply.

Suprised that Finnish pronounciation actually pretty simple and easy unlike other European languages like swedish, Denmark, french etc. I'm gonna learn it from now, wish me luck! ^^
olli laine Now I want to make a game of this while I learn Finnish. "What Will Google Translate Give Me?" Score points for the strangest misinterpretations!
"Hauska tutustua" literally means "It's funny to get to know you", but it can be used in a same way as "nice to meet you". You can also say "kiva tavata" which means "nice to meet you".
Kiva tavata sounds rather nice. Like I would totaly name my daughter Kiva Tavata. Not sure she'll be impressed when she's old enough to understand her name is Finnish for "nice to meet you." But it's sooooo lovely.
Tolkien's first work was the story of Kullervo, which based on our national epic poem collection Kalevala and Kullervo is a Finnish name. He was majorly influenced by the Norse and Finnish (and of course few others) mythologies. F. ex. the Norse Midgard = Middle-earth.
Chinese and English are both analytic languages, but they're not related nor are they the same people. Sharing some features doesn't make two languages related or one coming from the other one. Either sharing a language doesn't imply you're the same people or the same race, and the contrary: two people may have different languages and have the same ancestors. It's not that difficult to find examples of any of those situations in history. Anything else is just wishful thinking, let alone when the only thing you have in common is two people who speak two far related, if so, languages. Finno-Ugric and Altaic are different groups of languages for some reason. In fact some linguists also relate Finno-Ugric languages and Indo-European languages, because of some striking similarities in their syntaxis and morphology... even worse, some linguists have found good reasons to believe that almost all languages are related. What many people don't get is that the fact that languages spread out doesn't mean that all the people who speak those languages are blood related. That's something we should know here Spain. Latin was spoken in Spain and most languages we talk come from Latin, that doesn't mean that all Pre-romanic peoples were annihilated and the country was "filled" with people coming from what is today Italy and of course it doesn't make me an Italian. In fact just a few ones came from Italy, they ruled the country and the people that lived here adopted the language for many reasons, one of them being that it was the only common language they had, as they spoke different languages. Some were Indo-European some were from different families. (I mean the languages they spoke, who knows where these people came from) When the Muslims came, not all of them were from Arabia, and of course not all the people living in Spain were killed. Once again a relatively (compared to the native population) small amount of people came and ruled the country, they spoke Arabian, but they were not Arabs, at least not all them, and so, Arabian was used by most people under their regime. In fact as most of you may know we had three cultures living together: Muslims, Christians and Jews. When Spanish and Portuguese people left to America, they took their language, and so most people in Central and South America can speak one or the other language (even if they still speak their own native languages). That doesn't make them Spanish nor Portuguese, they speak the language, but have different ancestors. When Turks conquered Anatolia, there was already people living there, some of Greek heritage, and I'm sure most of them kept on living there, they just learned the language of the new rulers. That has happened all the time everywhere in the world. Trying to imagine a glorious nation that ruled or occupied all Asia and went to America, may be very interesting and exciting for some people, but it's just one of many theories and maybe not one of the best founded ones. I've had the chance to work with a few people from Turkey and I was kind of shocked to find that they believed everything was or had been Turk: All West Asia was Turk, all people living there were descendants from Turks, the people in America were also Turks... that might be true, we may never know, but it might as well and most probably be wrong, just because that's not the way things are and because the evidence for that is feeble and subject to personal interpretation. We know that's not the way languages spread out, that's not the way migrations are... and we know that for sure, we have historic facts that tell us so, not theories. If we were to believe this sort of thing, these legends more than historic facts, we should conclude that all of us are descendant of Adam and all languages come from Adamic, being Jews the ones who have kept their culture and language closer to the original. I'm sorry, but I really doubt it. Many people in the area where I live, envision a glorious past of Celtic warriors we all are descendants of... they feel they are more interesting and even, unfortunatelly, better than the rest. (It's seems we all have a little Hitler hiding in some dark corner of our souls). They don't know that Celtic (the language) was spread throughout Europe some centuries ago. It ranged from Ireland to Turkey and from North to South. That, probably (but not necessarily), implies that some Celts migrated to those places, but they were not at all a majority and of course not all the people there are their descendants. And yes, not all the people here, where I live, probably not even a considerable amount of people here, are their descendants, even if they or some of they lived here two or more thousand years ago. The funny thing about these people, where I live, that think they're descendants from Celts is that they also believe the rest of my country has never been Celtic, but the hard truth is that the most important Celtic cities and the places were most of their historic remnants are kept are outside this supposedly uniquely Celtic area. That's what happens when one tries to make history the way we'd like it to be and not the way it really is or was. Unfortunately we all can remember terrible episodes of human history when this led to holocaust and destruction. I'm sorry for the long commentary. I just hope someone had the willing to read it, but it's ok if you don't get down here.
Once again, thank you... or should I say: Muchas gracias de nuevo. Me encantan los lenguajes y sobre todo la historia y origen de los lenguajes y también sus implicaciones, a veces agradables, otras veces terribles.

Absolute Zero Maltese is semitic and of afro-Asiatic origin ,though s hares words in common with Italian,so the language is not of indoeuropean origin ,neither partly,,though i repeat ,has and shares common words with Latín and with Italian which are of indoeuropean origin.And grammatically,Maltese is much more similar to Arabic and has more things in common with Arabic than with Italian.
It's always been super cute language. I would love to learn it but it scares me off a bit. It's said it's a very difficult language and I don't have any opportunity to practice it... I would like to go to Finland for 2,3 years to work and study it but people say I'm 28 y.o. soon and I should look for a husband instead of that hahaha, cheers!
Lol, it isn't hard, but sometimes challening! It's differend for being a non-Indo-European language. In about half a year, you'll get how it basically works; I am actually tutoring one from America and he knows Finnish quite well. Do not take it as something to be afraid of, but something to be fascinated about; Tokien for instance was a great fan of the language.

I am Finnish and I took a course of Japanese. It was really easy to pronounce. There are many similarities, however the languages are like from different worlds, not connected in any way, other than the sounds. Japanese can be written in four ways, if it is written with Latin alphabet, it is similar to read as Finnish.

+avatarion She was born in Finland, but spent a few years of her childhood living in Singapore (according to the Finnishpop101.com). The site doesn't say anything about her ethnic origin. So how do you know? Honestly speaking, she could be Finnish. I've seen some Eastern Finns and Karelians who share very similar facial features as her.
You speak too fast. I think normal speed, then slow, word by word with a pause in-between so the viewer has time to repeat after you, then fast at normal speed again would work better.
Yea in general we do understand each other but when it comes to speaking in dialects it's a different matter, for example I'm from Pori and sometimes people can't understand what I say here in Helsinki. All dialects are mixing up so nowadays more people are speaking in slightly different dialects, dialect of Pori, Tampere, Turku, Karelia, Savo and Lappish dialects are pretty much all that haven't been mixed yet.
I fell in love with this language.. especially because it's the language of my favorite band "Sonata Arctica" :D Hei, minun nimeni on Ayman.. Hauska tutustua :D
There is some similarities on very basic level in uralic and altaic languages, not to mention both are agglutinative. Perhaps the proto-peoples of both language families were the same a long long time ago (+15000-20000 years) or lived in the same region.
Yes there are similarities in Finno/ugrian and turkic languages,but finno-ugric languages are far more complex than any of those in Altaic group. Hungarian Language has many loan words from Turkic Languages, but it still is more similar to finnish than turkish. and as we both know, the original turkish was lost in osman peroid and the turkish spoken today is reconstructed from other Turkic languages. :)
finnish thing magyar as on of their kinfolks like estonians, finoo-ugrian tribals in russia etc. Our history/language teaching also tells same thing. So Magyars are probaply closest of our kinfolk, but they are our kinfolk and that matters, at least to finnish.
@@Mimmi6559 "narttu rotan naamalla" would be direct translation but it depends in what sentence you want to use it. If your goal is to insult the woman on the video, I would say " rotta naamanen horo" (rat face whore), but it would not be good enough insult in finnish language. Swearing and insulting is an art form so you need to come up better ones or you seem to lack something and the insult would come back to you and make you look the stupid one. Example. "Tän horon naama näyttää kuolleeksi raiskatulta rotalta joka on jätetty mätänemään ojaan tai ainakin silmistä päätellen äly on lähteny kolme kuukautta sitten" (this whore´s face looks like a rat that have been raped to death and left to rot in a ditch or looking by her eyes, inteligence have left 3 months ago". That would be ok insult but not harsh, it sounds better in finnish.. Mut jos sä tahot nähä oikeesti jotain rumaa niin kato peiliin. Mun mielestä toi nainen on kaunis.But again it depends what is your intent, to insult or just say something that you think.

The only thing i know in Finnish is perkele.
kijra
And that's all you really need to know. You know that word, and people will respect you and buy you a beer.
+Cipry16 The etymology behind that word is quite interesting. It's an alternative word for the old Finnish pagan god Ukko, which is the god of the thunder, weather and harvest.
Cipry16) Omg XD
Cipri Loghin ahh curse word nice
It's Finland. Who the fuck says "nice to meet you" in Finland XD.
I WILL REIGN no one, that's who, cause no one cares :D
Jotku kiven alla asuneet aikuset

Nill yup. finns never talk to anyone when they're going anywhere, usually keep to themselves except if they're with a friend

Thanks for this video! I'm applying to teach English in a Finnish University and this is very helpful for me to get started :) :) I speak Serbian and English (natively) along with Russian and German, a bit of French and Spanish, as well as some Swedish/Norwegian. I also had to study Arabic when in the Army so i am pretty well-versed in linguistics, but Finnish is so beautiful i love it! =)
A true polyglot, congrats!
I need to learn Finnish because my girlfriend is Finnish. First thing I learned was "Minä rakastan sinua " ^-^
Aww :3
That's so sweet*-*
+JovanPlaysEverything my boyfriend is so same haha!
We broke up... :(
JovanPlaysEverything nuuu D:
FinnishPod101 I love your lessons, learning Finnish as a native English speaker has been a nightmare. But one day I'd like to emigrate there and your lessons are helping me with this, so thank you :)
You’re Welcome :) glad we can help
They say Hungarian and Finnish have the same roots,but as a Hungarian i must say this is hard to understand.
English and German also have the same roots however most english speakers cannot understand german
Also Turkish, mate.
TURKISH: Cebimde çok küçük elma var.
HUNGARIAN: Zsebemben sok kicsi alma van.
:)
Ancient Helium It's because we are brothers!
Ancient Helium Botmin Also Finnish, mate.
FINNISH: Elävä kala ui veden alla.
HUNGARIAN: Eleven hal úszik a víz alatt
:)
I was in hungary for 2 months and i also couldn't understand anything people were talking. but I have to say, I really heard very familiar words and pronounciation many times I was listening people speaking hungarian. for examble hungarian word "kuka" sounds identical to finnish, even though finnish word "kuka" means a different thing. also hungarian word "kocka" is pronounced very similar way as finnish word "kotka". there are lots of similarities with the little words and in hungarian the word also has different forms: virág, virágom -> kukka, kukkani. and yes, I have to say all hungarians pronounce finnish perfectly and same with finnish pronouncing hungarian. it's interesting I think.:)
Beautiful instructor....and language.
My finnish friend is teaching me all the finnish greetings: I can say perkele, vittu, perse, olut Etc. But finns are very shy because they look at me with a strange look when I greet them and dont reply.
Going to Finland in July from Australia as it is my background and need to get my Finnish up!
Everybody is Paula Laamanen, yeaaaaah!

I see why this Language is not Indo-European
Finns never say "nice to meet you" when introducing themselves lol
Are they like the Swedes?
TheKeisari they are not happy to meet you
Jadran Ahlstrom well I would know, as a finn myself
Andy Lannister What WTF Dont compare finnish drunk inbred to Swedes what are you doing
Jadran Ahlstrom Why do they hate the swedes so much? Did they beat them at chess or a surstromming eating challenge?
"In finnish, simple is better" THEN WHY DO YOU HAVE SO MANY CASES
I am finnish and I have no fucking clue about any finnish garmmour??
simpler to us --> still hard for pretty much any1 else.
i love these channels, can't wait to see more 3 minute finnish lessons!
Informal:
Hei, minun nimeni on Gudu. Hauska tutustua.

+Roger Moore Terve, Olen Markku. | Conversation ends here because Finns hate small useless talk. Keep it short and simple ;)

finnish grammar is killing me! but still, this video is really helping. P.S. this girl is gorgeous!
Suprised that Finnish pronounciation actually pretty simple and easy unlike other European languages like swedish, Denmark, french etc. I'm gonna learn it from now, wish me luck! ^^
Good luck ^^
Paula is so pretty :3
paula is so teethy
I'm so happy to find this! I'm moving to Finland soon and I really need to learn.
shidorikuroko use the google translator XD it doesn't even translate right
olli laine I know this so well! The translations it spits out are funny but uh ... not really useful!
Like: portaat. Means stairs but translator gives you word ladder.but if you put it around then it gives you word tikkaat :D
olli laine Now I want to make a game of this while I learn Finnish. "What Will Google Translate Give Me?" Score points for the strangest misinterpretations!
+NumbarOne your lucky
Minunimeniunniuminmiunm Taha
hahaha
"Hauska tutustua" literally means "It's funny to get to know you", but it can be used in a same way as "nice to meet you". You can also say "kiva tavata" which means "nice to meet you".
Kiva tavata sounds rather nice. Like I would totaly name my daughter Kiva Tavata. Not sure she'll be impressed when she's old enough to understand her name is Finnish for "nice to meet you." But it's sooooo lovely.
@@dacianavanprice It also means "it's fun to divide syllables". The child would probably become a total bookworm. :)
@@tyynymyy7770 hahahahaha. I wouldn't mind that at all, cause I love to read. However, my theoretical child would hate me.
It sounds like elven language from LOTR to me :-D
well, J.R.R Tolkien used Finnish when he created the elven languages : )
Tolkien's first work was the story of Kullervo, which based on our national epic poem collection Kalevala and Kullervo is a Finnish name. He was majorly influenced by the Norse and Finnish (and of course few others) mythologies. F. ex. the Norse Midgard = Middle-earth.
i love this honestly i mean from English to Finnish like that
Chinese and English are both analytic languages, but they're not related nor are they the same people.
Sharing some features doesn't make two languages related or one coming from the other one.
Either sharing a language doesn't imply you're the same people or the same race, and the contrary: two people may have different languages and have the same ancestors.
It's not that difficult to find examples of any of those situations in history.
Anything else is just wishful thinking, let alone when the only thing you have in common is two people who speak two far related, if so, languages. Finno-Ugric and Altaic are different groups of languages for some reason. In fact some linguists also relate Finno-Ugric languages and Indo-European languages, because of some striking similarities in their syntaxis and morphology... even worse, some linguists have found good reasons to believe that almost all languages are related.
What many people don't get is that the fact that languages spread out doesn't mean that all the people who speak those languages are blood related.
That's something we should know here Spain.
Latin was spoken in Spain and most languages we talk come from Latin, that doesn't mean that all Pre-romanic peoples were annihilated and the country was "filled" with people coming from what is today Italy and of course it doesn't make me an Italian.
In fact just a few ones came from Italy, they ruled the country and the people that lived here adopted the language for many reasons, one of them being that it was the only common language they had, as they spoke different languages. Some were Indo-European some were from different families. (I mean the languages they spoke, who knows where these people came from)
When the Muslims came, not all of them were from Arabia, and of course not all the people living in Spain were killed. Once again a relatively (compared to the native population) small amount of people came and ruled the country, they spoke Arabian, but they were not Arabs, at least not all them, and so, Arabian was used by most people under their regime.
In fact as most of you may know we had three cultures living together: Muslims, Christians and Jews.
When Spanish and Portuguese people left to America, they took their language, and so most people in Central and South America can speak one or the other language (even if they still speak their own native languages). That doesn't make them Spanish nor Portuguese, they speak the language, but have different ancestors.
When Turks conquered Anatolia, there was already people living there, some of Greek heritage, and I'm sure most of them kept on living there, they just learned the language of the new rulers. That has happened all the time everywhere in the world.
Trying to imagine a glorious nation that ruled or occupied all Asia and went to America, may be very interesting and exciting for some people, but it's just one of many theories and maybe not one of the best founded ones. I've had the chance to work with a few people from Turkey and I was kind of shocked to find that they believed everything was or had been Turk: All West Asia was Turk, all people living there were descendants from Turks, the people in America were also Turks... that might be true, we may never know, but it might as well and most probably be wrong, just because that's not the way things are and because the evidence for that is feeble and subject to personal interpretation.
We know that's not the way languages spread out, that's not the way migrations are... and we know that for sure, we have historic facts that tell us so, not theories.
If we were to believe this sort of thing, these legends more than historic facts, we should conclude that all of us are descendant of Adam and all languages come from Adamic, being Jews the ones who have kept their culture and language closer to the original. I'm sorry, but I really doubt it.
Many people in the area where I live, envision a glorious past of Celtic warriors we all are descendants of... they feel they are more interesting and even, unfortunatelly, better than the rest. (It's seems we all have a little Hitler hiding in some dark corner of our souls). They don't know that Celtic (the language) was spread throughout Europe some centuries ago. It ranged from Ireland to Turkey and from North to South.
That, probably (but not necessarily), implies that some Celts migrated to those places, but they were not at all a majority and of course not all the people there are their descendants. And yes, not all the people here, where I live, probably not even a considerable amount of people here, are their descendants, even if they or some of they lived here two or more thousand years ago.
The funny thing about these people, where I live, that think they're descendants from Celts is that they also believe the rest of my country has never been Celtic, but the hard truth is that the most important Celtic cities and the places were most of their historic remnants are kept are outside this supposedly uniquely Celtic area.
That's what happens when one tries to make history the way we'd like it to be and not the way it really is or was. Unfortunately we all can remember terrible episodes of human history when this led to holocaust and destruction.
I'm sorry for the long commentary. I just hope someone had the willing to read it, but it's ok if you don't get down here.
Thanks ***** for reading that long comment.
Javi Lagoares At first, it seemed to me very interesting. ;-) Worth reading.
Once again, thank you... or should I say: Muchas gracias de nuevo. Me encantan los lenguajes y sobre todo la historia y origen de los lenguajes y también sus implicaciones, a veces agradables, otras veces terribles.
Wow, out of the 1060 comments in this video, I found 28 comments referring to her being beautiful. Are people here to actually learn Finnish or are people just here because of her? lol
the pronunciation is not that hard, the rythm and intonation is easy to reproduce (and very interesting ). but cases Suck😣😣😣😣
and sometimes I confuse them all.
however, in my opnion , finnish is the most beautiful language I've ever heard
I am Greek and I have to say that Finnish is a brilliant language
I can't even pronounce the informal greeting properly lmao

Thank you for the comment!

How to say hi in finnish: "Terve mulkku, torilla tavataan mä tuon kaljat."
Trust me, it works.
Hi #####, Let’s meet in the market. I will bring the beers. It is maybe wrong
Ira Laurila I am finnish and I died of laughing
If someone comes up to me and says this, we are pals forever
Ira Laurila Ui juma😅🤣🤣😂
Mak07ri China same
I really liked the video, it showed me that I won't have too much trouble learning Finnish, and I picked up some very useful phrases as well.
It's the most funny language I have ever heard but I like it
When you start learning and realize it is one of the hardest languages in the world, it won't be funny anymore :)
oh got try to learn some ancient languages like mayan or something just cause they sound funny x_x
+Vladimir Mazare (TelePortal) I'm sorry, but I didn't want to offend you, I don't know finnish, so that language sounds funny to me (without misunderstanding). But as I wrote in my first comment, I like finnish :)
(almost every language sounds weird for a foreigner)
you tagged the wrong person :D
Thank you for the lesson! Very interesant language, and very beautiful teacher! :D
Finnish, Basque, Hungarian. Those are not Indoeuropean languages, that's why are so hard to understand.
Finnish and Hungarian nostratic languages...
You forgot Estonian and Maltese, they're also not an Indo-European language.
Claude Mac Maltese is a hybrid language between Italian and Arabic. So it's partly Indo-European, but not fully.
Absolute Zero Maltese is semitic and of afro-Asiatic origin ,though s hares words in common with Italian,so the language is not of indoeuropean origin ,neither partly,,though i repeat ,has and shares common words with Latín and with Italian which are of indoeuropean origin.And grammatically,Maltese is much more similar to Arabic and has more things in common with Arabic than with Italian.
Is "Hauska tavata" another way to say "Nice to meet you"
my girlfriend is from finland. now i have to learn one of hardest languages in the world XD
I loved this! Hauska Tutustua!
It's always been super cute language. I would love to learn it but it scares me off a bit. It's said it's a very difficult language and I don't have any opportunity to practice it... I would like to go to Finland for 2,3 years to work and study it but people say I'm 28 y.o. soon and I should look for a husband instead of that hahaha, cheers!
Lol, it isn't hard, but sometimes challening! It's differend for being a non-Indo-European language.
In about half a year, you'll get how it basically works; I am actually tutoring one from America and he knows Finnish quite well.
Do not take it as something to be afraid of, but something to be fascinated about; Tokien for instance was a great fan of the language.
gosh! beautiful language yet more beautiful instructor :)
Hello, please make more video series of Finnish lessons..
But... but... but... im finnish and i know how to speak finnish.
+Eero Elenius Pero apuesto a que no sabes escribir español verdad? :3
Tiedatko sa kuinka puhua suomea ???Bravo :D 1 :D.Mutta kuinka se on ?Espanjalaiset puhuvat suomea ja suomalaiset puhutte espanjaa :D.Suomessa ihmiset puhutte espanjaa ja espanjaksi ja Espanjassa (ma asun taalla ),espanjalaiset puhuvat suomea ja suomeksi :D.
El Jefe no te creas ,no pienses que no ,porque el español es muy popular en Finlandia ,se puede estudiar en los colegios y luego tmb ,mucha gente lo estudia en las universidades,sobre todo las chicas XD ))
te mamaste xD

,,nimeni'' in romanian means ,,nobody'' :O
oh thank you so so much, my entire father's side of the family is finnish and I'd love to be able to understand the a little bit but dont have the money to pay for a course yet.
wow it sounds like Japanese
I was thinking that too :D Sounds so cute
Both of them are agglutinative languages, they stacking affixes to the word to form it. And I aggree. Maybe becuase both use many u's and i's? :D
Good Job....I'm learning it too lol :-)
I am Finnish and I took a course of Japanese. It was really easy to pronounce. There are many similarities, however the languages are like from different worlds, not connected in any way, other than the sounds. Japanese can be written in four ways, if it is written with Latin alphabet, it is similar to read as Finnish.
Really! It's, "linguistically related"!
It is helpful. Could you please bring your rate of speech down? Please remember that we people who are watching this video are just toddlers in Finnish. Thank you.
Paula is very cute! She looks like casual girl from central Russia. And also finnish language sounds like tatar language sometimes.
She is half-Singaporean afterall.
Wow! How do you know?
+avatarion She was born in Finland, but spent a few years of her childhood living in Singapore (according to the Finnishpop101.com). The site doesn't say anything about her ethnic origin. So how do you know?
Honestly speaking, she could be Finnish. I've seen some Eastern Finns and Karelians who share very similar facial features as her.
@avatarion I don't think she is half Singaporean, she is probably a Finn who lived in Singapore during her childhood.
This helps me alot. Thank you so much.
Is it me or Finnish sounds like Quenya??
Ohhh
Thanks for doing this lessons xD Kiitos pajlon!
Finnish sounds amazing! I like this language :)
kiitos this was awesome :)
Very weird language, seems hard
Everybody says that - it has to be said that it is different to other European languages though.
Yes it is :O But it's not that hard, you have to just learn how to pronounce ä and ö. But, I'm Finn, so I can't really say that it's not hard :D
Finnish is known as one of the hardest languages to learn in the whole world. And WE (finns who speak swedish) have to learn it!
It is the hardest language i've ever attempted, French, Spanish, German few problems but on the whole? Easy. Finnish? Pure language pain :P
i never learn that language.But your eys are very facinating.
I can't learn it is too funny :(
Im sorrry it is like japanse :D
+Stiiv Im try and try again but i can't
*Finding Nemo vibes*
Mr ray, “you live in what kind of home?”
Nemo: “anemon.. anemone? Minun nimeni?”
😂
You speak too fast. I think normal speed, then slow, word by word with a pause in-between so the viewer has time to repeat after you, then fast at normal speed again would work better.
Hey Kathy, sorry for the late reply, Thanks for the feedback, we'll take into consideration for our next videos :)
She speaks slowly ..m😂😂😂quite slowly 😃😃😃😂😂😂😂😂😮😮😂😂😂
I'm swedish but i have finnish relatives so thank you i can soon speak with them :D
Too fast, slow Down!!!
:)
Yea in general we do understand each other but when it comes to speaking in dialects it's a different matter, for example I'm from Pori and sometimes people can't understand what I say here in Helsinki.
All dialects are mixing up so nowadays more people are speaking in slightly different dialects, dialect of Pori, Tampere, Turku, Karelia, Savo and Lappish dialects are pretty much all that haven't been mixed yet.
she is an attractive person!

Yes she is, but her eyebrows distract me. They look like horizontal blocky quotation marks! But otherwise this video is great.
I fell in love with this language.. especially because it's the language of my favorite band "Sonata Arctica" :D
Hei, minun nimeni on Ayman..
Hauska tutustua :D
Hmm, like yakut...
Minun = minem
in yakut - Minem atum Paula Laamanen.
Stop..
Minem atum uk Paula, minem atum Misha!
Mahtal finnarga, yuorettim urokkutun, tugu ere buldym:D
Wow, that sounds fascinating!
There is some similarities on very basic level in uralic and altaic languages, not to mention both are agglutinative. Perhaps the proto-peoples of both language families were the same a long long time ago (+15000-20000 years) or lived in the same region.
Interesting. What about are there any similarities between Mongolian and Yakut and Finnish? Or even Turkish? Sorry I don't know :D
Yes there are similarities in Finno/ugrian and turkic languages,but finno-ugric languages are far more complex than any of those in Altaic group. Hungarian Language has many loan words from Turkic Languages, but it still is more similar to finnish than turkish. and as we both know, the original turkish was lost in osman peroid and the turkish spoken today is reconstructed from other Turkic languages. :)
This language is on par with Magyar XD
+Ageng Prabowo both languages are relative to ech other.
But not us much as finnish and estonia.
finnish thing magyar as on of their kinfolks like estonians, finoo-ugrian tribals in russia etc. Our history/language teaching also tells same thing.
So Magyars are probaply closest of our kinfolk, but they are our kinfolk and that matters, at least to finnish.
OHHHHH,i love finland so much!
How do you say huge teeth in Finnish ? :p
BitAmy she has very isot hampaat :p
Taha Mebtoul Hänellä on suuret hampaat
How do you say "bitch with rat face" in Finnish?
@@Mimmi6559 "narttu rotan naamalla" would be direct translation but it depends in what sentence you want to use it. If your goal is to insult the woman on the video, I would say "
rotta naamanen horo" (rat face whore), but it would not be good enough insult in finnish language. Swearing and insulting is an art form so you need to come up better ones or you seem to lack something and the insult would come back to you and make you look the stupid one. Example. "Tän horon naama näyttää kuolleeksi raiskatulta rotalta joka on jätetty mätänemään ojaan tai ainakin silmistä päätellen äly on lähteny kolme kuukautta sitten" (this whore´s face looks like a rat that have been raped to death and left to rot in a ditch or looking by her eyes, inteligence have left 3 months ago". That would be ok insult but not harsh, it sounds better in finnish.. Mut jos sä tahot nähä oikeesti jotain rumaa niin kato peiliin. Mun mielestä toi nainen on kaunis.But again it depends what is your intent, to insult or just say something that you think.
The good day part is really a tongue twister.
I currently learning Japanese and their Engrish really helped me learn that one!
how 2 perkele
I have a question. I heard that Moi is way to say hello in Finnish, but in in what context do you use it?
It's a casual way to say it, like 'howdy' or 'yo' in English. It can be sorthened to just 'mo' too if you wanna be stylish
ArguerMan Use ”mo” if you wannabe cool jonne
@@joonlee6081 Yes, that is why I use 'o'
Is it me, or is this chick mad hot?
It's not just you my friend.
I listen your voice in here like Google translate but that's no problem because i also still learning about foreigner language.
the most beautiful asian woman i´ve ever seen
Kranjčan XDDD WE ARE EUROPEANS.

There's only two words I need to know in finnish;
1. Perkele
2. Vittu
Too fast...
I am Finnish and I've been learning English for forty years, mainly by reading English language literature, yet I still only have a thirty thousand word English vocabulary, which is probably less than most native English speakers. How much can you realistically expect to learn in three minutes, then?
