Opetan suomea/I teach Finnish

Recommended Posts

Hei! Tervetuloa suomen peruskurssille! Minä olen epävirallinen opettajanne Liljatupsu.

This will be a basic course that will teach you survival Finnish, since I'm just 14 and don't know how to explain the more complicated things. German speaking people might have an easier time with the verbs, but we'll see about that.

I hope to work together with Dai's nicheling school in the future.

 

Oppilaat/students:

Speedy Philo (Renio2490)

Philomena (Bostonlobstah)

PhilIo (Aetherskye)

Is French difficult?

kind of? probably not as difficult as some other european languages, but it definitely has some stupid rules (the whole masculine and feminine thing is weird, who the hell looked at a pen and went: yep! definitely a boy!) but it is made quite a bit easier because of the fact france is literally across the channel to us, so there are quite a lot of cognates and such.

I = minä

you (one person) = sinä

he/she = hän

we = me

you (multiple people) = te

they = he

 

this = tämä

that = tuo

it = se

these = nämä

those = nuo

they (plural of "it") = ne

I think German has something similiar with "der" being masculine, "das" being neutral and "die" being feminine/plural
