RE: Learning Finnish: WordDive

in #finland6 years ago

Hi Markku. Very happy to trade advice on languages. Sorry it took me a while to get back to you, last week I had suddenly a lot to do in response to a job application for work in Lahti. I think it went well, but I was very busy with that and had little time for steem until this weekend. Just waiting now for their decision.

I do need to clarify that whilst I currently live in Scotland, I did not grow up here and my accent is mostly a strange mix of English regions rather than Scottish. Also, the highlands, where I live, tends to have a very soft accent compared to urban regions of Scotland.

As for Gaelic, I do not speak it, although I have picked up on some words and phrases.

Incidentally, I love that Google mistranslated 'distillery' as 'whirlwinds' in your sentence! My Finnish is improving but I still need tools like sanakirja and google translate to help get endings right. Begun learning the KPT rules and strong and weak forms etc, but still have a lot to learn. :)
