By digging around in Wiktionary for the etymologies for all of them, I found the meanings of all the month words are quite interesting. And a fun fact: in Chinese, we also use the same character of moon for month-月. tammi:(dialectal, archaic) heart, core, axis
I love this, thank you so much for giving us this knowledge. How beautiful that our Finnish ancestors left us the survival instructions for mankind, written in our calendars.
Kitos! Olen Bangladeshista. This is very helpful for me as i'm the beginner. Now I'm trying to say some words & sentences as well with my partner. This seems very interesting to me. Anyways, thanks Anna . wonderful session , I must say♥️
Kiitos paljon videostasi, Anna! Se oli mahtava. Sinulla on tosi hyvä "opetusmuoto"! It's nice the days are so simple - makes up in part for the tricky months!
Kiitos, Anna! Several of these words seem to break vowel-harmony, especially the “kuu”s mismatching what comes before it. For example, it would seem like “heinäkuu” would need to be either “heinäkyy” or ”heinakuu” (?). I guess that’s because they’re technically compound words, the “kuu” being “moon,” as you pointed out.
It is a compound word so the vowel harmony does not apply. Kuu means moon. Kyy would be a viper. One special word is tällainen (like this). It seems to break the vowel harmony but it actually comes from "tämän lainen". Many say it as "tälläinen" so they put the vowel harmony where it does not officially belong. In Finnish there is a comitative case which means with something. It is always in plural like "koirineen" even if there is just one dog. It is seldom used, instead people use postposition "kanssa". Officially one would say "koiransa kanssa" but in spoken language one says "koiran kaa". But remember spoken language does not have word breaks. Is that a postposition or a new case: "koirankaa"? Well if he comes with his mother it is "äidin kaa" but some actually say "äidinkää". That in no way can be short of "äidin kanssa" . It is actually a new comitative case. Now Estonian has also comitative and what is the ending there? Well it is "ga". Estonian is in many ways a more developed language. Many things that are unofficial in Finnish are official in Estonian.
@@okaro6595, good clarification! Thanks. I was suspecting that was the reason, but wasn’t sure. I guess vowel harmony is preserved between roots and endings (e.g., oletteko vs. tiedättekö), but not across compound nouns (etc.).
Hei anna its me again my finnish is perfect my finnish friends grandpa and father are shocked I was on FaceTime speaking finnish and they were shocked to see an American on the other end apparently my friends father likes me and respects me for my finnish skills thank you so much for these lessons
