how diffycult is suomi to learn ?

Puhutko jo suomea ?

I wonder how the " english speaking people " find suomi as a language ?

Many say that is quite hard to learn - but howcome all children in Finland speak it then.

It is more diffycult if You compare it to english ?

How many years of studying suomi You have ?

      but howcome all children in Finland speak it then.

      tuo oli aika tyhmästi sanottu.. totta kai sen oppii jos sitä koko ikä jauhetaan toiselle. vähän niinkuin kiinaa opettelisi. kaiken oppii harjoittelemalla. ja kun siihen ei tule muita kieliä päälle niin sen oppii nopeasti, jos lapselle sopertaa kiinaa ja suomea ollessaan pieni hän oppii molemmat paljon helpommin kuin 20 - vuotiaana

      I was often told that Finnish language is the most difficult language in the world. Totaliseskti paskaa. In fact, I am learning Finnish faster than I learned English and my mother tongue does not share any similarities with either of them. But I have to admit learning English helped me understand the difficulties one would face learning a new language which might have eased the whole frustration part now that I am learning another new language i.e. Finnish :)

      Very interesting viewpoint !

      I just think that this all comes to the education system of UK and USA - AUS & NZ

      There are just no languages to be tought in schools ! There are no teachers to teach any foreign
      language. They dont know how to teach ?

      This way in Finland - we have 100 years advantage.

      • know about

        UK, AUS or NZ but American schools teach a foreign language, most often Spanish or French. In order to be admitted to a University you have to have at least two years of foreign language study, top Universities require four years.
        About that 100yr. advantage - I would suggest you study history a little bit more.

        History aparts USA from Europe

        What i know about the mainkland USA is that thier spanish is for mexicans and other South American people - not for the SPAIN spanish.

        What i have hear many english speaking complain is often about thier schooling system - that there is / are no languages to be learn !

        You must remember that at your schools you get the picture of the world.

        The 100 taers advantage comes from our history - Did You read it ?

        1809 We were a part of Sweden - then Russia - that makes it 200 years advantage !

        The first university in Finland was founded in 1640 in Turku and it became Helsinki University in 1829.
        Harvard University in USA was founded in 1636.

        The advantage 200 is about dealing with people - that speak another language than yours !

        Are You saying that all the teaching was in latin ?

        Why did You have the famous - Boston tea party ?

        An American student learns all that way before graduating High School. Don't they teach American history in Finland?
        What do they teach in Harvard? Law, business, medicine and umpteen other subjects.

        You just didnt mention anything about the TEA PARTY of BOSTON Mass.

        Why did it happen ? I am ASKING why ?

        Did You just forget it ? I only takes some 10minutes ?

        What is / was the difference between The Brithish and The American British ?

        Do You think - that when You are being called American and speak english
        that is like knowing two languages ? - history etc ?
        Like Suomi being part of Sweden 1809 and Russia 1917 ?

        Nobody ever told me why they rebelled - so could You try !

        You seem to know the history - maybe a Harvard Graduate ?

        I am afraid they all this was never tought at my school !

        was in 1773. United States became independent in 1776 (vs. Finland in 1917). In my opinion USA has the advantage here.
        All you need to do is type "Boston Tea Party" in your Google and the information will be available to you. I don't have the time to teach you history that you can learn by yourself without lifting your butt.

        Are You saying that nobody talkss about the ones that rebelled vs

        The British & The Queen ?

        I am glad that everyone in USA knows the ones - all about it and better.

        The schools are not so bad as we have thought here in Suomi.

        By the way - are You talking about the public schools ?

        Finland became 1809 a Grand Duchy of Russia. 1776 - 1809 is a short time in history

        What really happened is the key ! There is no history - other like it !

      How Europeans know the difference between American - Canadian and British ?

      Kiitos Thank You very ineresting comparison !

      I bet it's hard for english-speaking people to learn it but since I'm a true Finn I can't say for sure. Of course it's easy to learn the language if you grow up in the middle of Finnish speaking people and the learning of the languages is also much more easier for toddlers/children. I speak both fluent Finnish and English and I must say English is easier for me though Finnish is my native language.

    • a finnish girl

      As a child from two to nine years you can learn languages very easily. I am a Finn, but I have studied English at school for eight years but don`t speak und understood it well. I think Finnish is very difficul for foreigners but you can lern it!
