I tell you, this european hierarchy subverts sovereign states as careerist fkbag politicians of smaller countries like Ireland will sell out their own countries to further their European ambitions. It's already happened to Ireland
You should move to the UK, our government is great over here Good luck to you mate, are you going to learn Finnish or just stick with English since most of the Scandinavian countries are fluent anyway.
Stick to English. Just speak louder and with a Finnish accent. Basically assume that all the people you're talking to, who have managed to learn a second language, are ******ed. Britain built an Empire without needing to learn foreignspeak.
Lol at that vid. "Can I have my slippers?" Yeah, cos that's gonna stop your frozen nuts from dropping off... Hope the move goes well mate, have only heard good things about Finland (other than the uber taxes ). Say hi to Santa Claus!
http://liverpool.no/ one has been updated for a month, the other bang up to date with a popular forum. hmmmmm It was only a joke anyway.
The trouble with the language is that it's totally different from (or is it too?) any other Scandinavian language. So the Danes, Swedes and Norwegians will have as much difficulty as you. Just talk slowly and very loudly and they'll know that you're yet another jibbering idiot that they have to look after.
Uber taxes. Ireland now has surpassed Finland would you believe. Even if tax is €200pm more which it is Not.. that is totally wiped out by electricity at 30% cheaper and creche 80% cheaper saving me over €1000 evvery month! now that's That is me in the vid, and yeah the slippers helped fk all Luxury things are expensive in Finland, going out to eat ect, but to live is far far cheaper!!! I **** you not.
Nordic Dave, very disappointed in you me auld nautical salty The spiel is a continuous stream with totally different syllables so it is hard to tell where one word ends and the other begins when I listen to someone talking. I started first learn to say the alphabet in the language as it should sound, it's a far more rounded pronunciation of the letters with some new letters too , helps loads, learn then to swear and the basic tenses and verbs and go from there, working out well so far. I even make up pigeon finish. Instead of asking "where's my shorts?", I joke and say in suomi "where's my half trousers" cracks her up no end and even people in earshot we don't know.
OH!, thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to demonstrate that I DO get things wrong! I must admit I knew that the language was totally different to the Scandinavian ones but hadn't thought about it being Nordic. Great! I've learnt something - yipee!! Have to say that my yacht (when I owned one) was a Nauticat 32 made in Finland as are a number of quality yachts. Bloody good blue water boat. Never sailed up there though - always aiming for T shirt and shorts sailing.
I knew it! i knew it I would teach someone something eventually. It only took 30 years. I knew somehow you were a nautinaughticat, back in your box! Yacht you say So you'll be all RA in the summer with booze and the decks decked in scanty clad hotties? Shiver me timbers, Where are you moored come summer? I could be wrong but there are meant to be more comparative elements between japanese and Suomi compared to Swedish or Norwegian. Estonian dialect has a fair few similarities, their also sister nations in that they told Russia to fk off about the same time I think, could be wrong.. my Finnish history bar the winter war, is terrible
Ahhh... Finland... the only country in the world that make the Germans seem to be comic geniuses. Couple of jokes to get you ready for the big move. A Finn walked into a bar; he was a chronic alcoholic and his drinking was ruining his health, career, and family life. Did you hear about the man in Helsinki that fell into a vat of acid? He died an agonizing painful death! What's the difference between a Finn and a German? Finnish people come from Finland and ascribe to the culture of that land. Germans come from Germany.
