A Fascinating Language

A lot could be written here, but we will keep it short. The first time I heard Finnish it was very strange to me because everyone speaks so quietly and not distinctly. It doesn’t remind me of any language either, maybe not Russian, but I don’t know if it’s really different. As I learned from the teachers, Finnish is similar to Estonian. Even when they speak English, they are not very confident. They speak very quietly and indistinctly, so we didn’t understand them very well. They also have interesting words that are very difficult to pronounce. But I remembered only one word and that is thank you, which according to them is called kiitos. In addition to Finnish, the official language is also Swedish. It is also part of the Finno-Ugric language family. Interestingly, Finnish uses the Latin alphabet, which is slightly different from English. Finnish grammar has as many as 15 declensions for nouns and 6 for adjectives. And nouns do not have a gender, which is very strange, because that is not the case in Slovenian. Therefore, Finnish and Slovenian are very different, and as they say, Finnish is one of the more difficult languages.
