”assorted”
A short introduction to the Finnish language by Jukka Korpela
(EDIT 7.2.2008)
Tämä on jo mennyt liian pliisuksi?
Onpa nätti, kuin henkäys. 🙂
KooTee: tää taisi olla liian romanttista?
Maria: 😀
lähikuva järkkärillä.
(Makro-objektiivia odotellessa)
Sarjasamme kokeiluja
kukkia ja valo.
Minähän olen romantikko, kuten KH on joskus todennut=D
This is quite interesting, thank you for posting these references. I read a few of them and I printed out the short phrase guide. I can see that Finnish is somewhat complicated for an English speaker because of the way words are formed with endings added on. Having studied a few languages when I was younger (I am not conversant in any of them anymore, sorry to say), I am always fascinated to learn about how languages and their grammars are constructed.
Are you a teacher? I imagine this is the sort of thing that a teacher would post for the instruction for others.
Thank you for the information!
KooTee: mutta tämä oli ilmeisesti jo
liian romanttinen sinulle? Et ole siis
yliromanttinen.
Sara: Mainly this is as help for myself.
English language is very complicated for me
just because that you have prepositions and
conjunction front of words. For me it is
easier to study grammar through Finnish.
So I collected a list and I thought
that maybe it would be useful for others also.
Well, I’m not a teacher but I teach by now and then.
But one hobby of mine is to collect all kind of
information: on my old blog
http://kuvauksia.blogspot.com/ (link) I have a lot of all kind of lists for example ”syötävää” eatable/ ruoka= food, syö = eat Syötävää (link)

These dictionaries are very useful. I have them in drop down menu in Firefox, where is also Google search.
Nuo sanakirja linkit kannattaa vilkaista, mikali ei kaikki englannin sanat ole hallussa !
Kiitos Leena!!!!
Minulle kielet ovat olleet
aina vähän hankalia.
Ajattelen esim. englantia
aina liikaa suomen kautta
ja silloin yleensä aina menee pieleen.
Kiitos Kirppu! Toinen enkkuontto täällä… Kopioin linkin juttuusi muistiksi blogiini – kait ok?
jep.
Etenkin toi
