Why should you learn Finnish?
The answer is simple: Why not? The Finnish language is without a doubt difficult to learn, but which language isn’t? You may already know this quote from Henry Ford: “Whether you think you can, or you think you can’t, you’re right.” The same applies to learning languages. It all starts in your mind! So, if you are motivated and ready to take on a new challenge, here are some reasons why learning Finnish is definitely a good idea!
- Finnish words aren’t gendered. Unlike, for instance, French or Spanish, you won’t be getting a headache trying to find out whether you say “le voiture” or “la voiture”.
- The Finnish language has no future tense! Context is the key.
- Learning a new language creates new pathways in the brain.
- Finnish is a phonetic language, meaning that its pronunciation follows its written form, so no pronunciation traps! This makes the learning process a thousand times easier.
- Finland was named “Happiest country in the world”. So, if you plan to move here, you might consider learning Finnish. The beauty of the language is breathtaking and amazing!
- Learn Finnish for travel purposes: When it comes to culture, Finland has a lot of diversity, a complex and rich history, as well as a vibrant natural beauty. Definitely worth a visit.
What are idioms?
Idioms are a type of figurative language, meaning that they are not always to be taken literally and may be difficult to understand since its meaning cannot be derived from the conjoined meanings of its elements. Nevertheless, they add color and mystery to a language, making it richer and spicier. Usually, idioms are based on the experiences of previous generations. Idioms can be found in any language, so obviously the Finnish language is not an exception. Finnish idioms too, reflect the ways and habits of the Finnish people throughout the centuries. With this Finnish idioms course, you will be able to take a glimpse into the Finnish mind and culture. Knowing idioms will drastically improve your language and cultural knowledge!
