Like i said I lived there, so i know a little of the challenges of learning Finnish 
Helsinki btw is officially bi-lingual (finnish and swedish), hence my fast-developped skills of reading swedish newspapers

Good things about Finnish are as far as I know no difference between sexes (no 'him' or 'her'). No prepositions (preposisjoner), the cases deal with that. Always funny when Finns without practise in Swedish/Norwegian says about a girl: I will walk over and talk to him... This thread should perhaps be placed in the mobile free area, or in the garbage threads? How to please a Swede: Ask him/her about their national ice hockey team (called "Tre Kronor" [three crowns]). Something like this (I understand Swedish, but have never learnt [to write] it): "Så det går jättebra med Tre Kronor om dagen?" Kr.A. |

Hi! I'm back! My damn broadband-internetconnection has went down completely, so I had to wait for work to visit esato! 
See that this thread has grown quick!  And also that we have some
Norweigian friends here! Always nice to see! Even though SVerige of course is a whole lot better than Norge in almost everything! 
Update on situation in Stockholm/Sweden today:
Varmt och soligt. Temperaturen väntas bli +26C under eftermiddagen.
Warm and sunny. Temperature is expected to be +26C during the afternoon.
Jag har extremt tråkigt på jobbet, och skulle hellre sitta på en båt ute
i skärgården just nu.
I'm extremely bored here at work, and would rather be on a boat out in the archipelago right now...
Cheers!

@ Bart
Hehehe, well atleast I understand what you mean
And I agree!
I'd say: Jobba? Nej tack! (Work? No thanks...)
Would it be: Werken? Nee dank! ????
Now it's damn hot and sunny here. I'd like to have an ice-cream!
Nu är det jävligt varmt och soligt här. Jag skulle vilja ha en glass!

@Bart
Soon you really are a swede! You got it almost right!
"är det varmt och soligt här, jag skulle vilja ha en båt ute"
pretty close! You're good; this is the correct swedish:
Det är varmt och soligt här, jag skulle vilja ha en båt
Ik willen huiswaarts gaan!
Jag vill gå hem
I want to go home...

Except when it counts. Hehe... Det er noe så inn i granaskauen varmt i Vestfold i dag. Ikke til å være ute i. It is so damned* warm in Vesfold county today. Not to be outside in. *= the Norw. phrase actually mean "into the spruce forest", but the meaning is a medium force expression Kr. A.

How do you incline the verbs in Dutch? One or two examples please... and what are the articles
Ik wil
you wilst?
he/she/it wilt?
we willen
you wilt?
they willen
The Norwegian and Swedish written languages don't incline verbs in this way anymore. But a lot of dialects in Norway actually separates singular and plural forms, ex:
(willen)
eg, du, han/ho/det vil
vi, dere, dei vilja
(kommen?)
eg, du, han/ho/det kjem
vi, dere, dei koma
Unfortunelately I don't do it in my dialect, a shame since I think it is very cool. Kr. A.
