Why did you learn Finnish?

To communicate with my parents and extended family. At age 1 I started to feel a bit hungry and decided I should start speaking so that my parents would feed me.

Hope this helps!

Shopping in Finland with Google Translate be like...

Yritin kääntää "Aina saa hävetä" enkuks, mut siihen ei vaan saa sitä samaa syvää häpeän tuntua mikä suomeks, kun sen silleen pettyneenä tuhahtaa.

"One always ends up feeling ashamed" kuullostaa enemmän jonkun englantilaisen herrasmiehen kevyeltä filosofiselta pohdiskelulta, kun syvän synnyinhäpeän pinnan hipaisulta.

"One always gets to be ashamed" ?

"Can't help but always feel ashamed" ?

"Must I always feel ashamed?" ?

"We always end up bringing dishonor onto us" ???

Sometimes writing in English sucks bc there are so many Finnish words that aren't easily translated to English, but would make the most sense in the sentence. Like fuck you mean you don't have pyristellä? Or ylihuomenna? Fucking eteinen!!!!!!!

Everyone says Finnish is so so so hard (which it is tbf) but it is just like a puzzle. You learn the rules and put words and sentences together. There are five billion rules which is the hard part of it but like… conceptually it isn’t that difficult to me. I get what I am supposed to do and what things sound like even if I don’t know the rule yet, I feel like I can get it eventually

Meanwhile some other languages are like “idk man just… you’ll just never get it :)”

Ja tässä näemme jälleen esimerkin siitä, miksi konekäännös ei tule vieläkään viemään töitä suomalaisilta kielenkääntäjiltä

I certainly DO NOT have the time to take on a new project right now, however, I have a very important Finnish language exam in a few weeks and apparently, the only way to get me to study something is to make me create comics about it, sooo...

Here you have it. Come learn Finnish with me by following my new project!

It's on Facebook

And on Instagram

Tehdään tää kerrasta selväksi:

HALTIJA on joku joka omistaa jotain, pitää jotain hallussaan esim. avaimen haltija (vrt. kirjailija, taiteilija, tanssija).

HALTIA on henkiolento.

Seuraava joka sotkee nämä keskenään saa heittää hyvästit kirjoituskädelleen.
