Terve! Haluan kysya...Onko suomen kielessa kohtelias tyyli? Meille sanotiin, että suomalaiset eivät pidä siitä. Voinko käyttää prononimi "Te", jos puhun tuntemattoman kanssa?

Kiitos vastauksesta, minä luin kaikki!

reconnecting with the finnish language again after being socially conditioned to dislike it. but it's actually so silly and fun, like i love it when finnish people say shit like tättärää and herranjestas and ystäväiseni and hiton hitto and hemmetti sentään. and when finnish people talk to each other we're just like niin joo just niin totta juu niinhän se oli ai niinkö? no joo tottakai, ei mutta joo niin, kyllä kyllä, tottahan se.

i love finnish language jokes that everybody knows from school, like ootko sä pannu...vai kattila? and ensin mennään saunaan, ja sitten syödään vasta.

i love being finnish (self-affirmation)

Jere has a bad case of ”putkiaivot” (=one-track mind, lit. tube brain) when it comes to Bojan. He likes all the guys but he just loves Bojan so much he forgets the others exist sometimes.

Tässä postaus jokaikiselle suomea vieraana kielenä opiskelevalle:

Olette ihania, valtavan rohkeita, ja kaikki teistä puhuu parempaa suomea kuin itse luulette. Oikeesti, olkaa ylpeitä itsestänne! Suomen kieli on kielioppisääntöjen viidakko ja jos joku yrittää pilkata teitä siitä ettette osaa niitä tarpeeksi hyvin, niin mää ryömin niiden ilmastointikanavista sisään ja varastan kaikki puhelinten laturit kunnes ne oppivat käyttäytymään

(and the same in English for those of you who are still just starting, or who want to know how well they understood, or what have you)

Here's a post to everyone studying Finnish as a second language:

You are wonderful, incredibly brave, and every one of you speaks better Finnish than you think. Seriously, be proud of yourselves! Finnish is a jungle of grammar rules and if someone tries to mock you for not knowing all of them, I'll crawl in through their vents and steal all of their phone chargers until they learn to behave

The Finn just announced that we'd handle some things "one potato at a time".

Another idiom she has seamlessly translated from Finnish into English that's completely wonderful.

To Finnish language learners and music enthusiasts

I am a little bit scared to promote this, but here goes:

Translated Lyrics of Finnish Songs

It has Finnish music of different genres with a Youtube embed as well as the lyrics in Finnish and English side-by-side. It's an effective way to find new music while getting to understand the lyrics at the same time. Each post is tagged by artist, genre and year of release. Translator's notes are included to help language learners understand special cultural references and such. And it is possible to request translations on the pinned post comments, even anonymously without creating an account.

Use it if you find it helpful or share with someone who might find it helpful~

I love the finnish exclamation 'Voi venäjä' which is a curse quite similar in strength to 'Damn it'

The curious thing is that it directly translates to 'Oh Russia'

Russia is a bad enough idea for Finnish to evoke it's name as a curse word

[talesandfluff]

@ suomalaisille

is this actually how this is typically phrased? because in my understanding, -ton is the -less suffix, and ulkopuoli means outside, so this is a double negative? outside of + not married? is that how it always work with -ton? or with ulkopuoli?
