Uskomatonta! Tulin katsomaan, mitä kirjoitat, ja ensimmäisessä kuvassa oli muistikirja täynnä suomea. Amazing! I'm a Finnish writer/photographer and am just drafting a post about my Italian studies. You are such a star with your knowledge about language learning and yes, learning Finnish, too. Suomi on varmasti aika vaikea kieli oppia. Jään seuraamaan tekstejäsi!

Kiitos, Nani! Suomi on todella vaikea kieli. Kun aloin oppia suomi en tiennyt että haluan oppia 12 kieli ! It was very poorly planned :) If I knew in advance I'd be learning 12 languages in a year I would never make Finnish one of them. It's so crazy hard :) Kiitos että seurat!

Todella kiva, että opiskelet suomea! For me it brings back a beautiful time in my life. It's great that you are making it your own now too. I think learning languages can be so full of personal, individual meaning. Look forward to following along with your journey.

Wordsmith, personally, I haven't learned lots of languages, keep learning how to speak the Word, though. Here: I Am the world's True Friend. I abide in each and all. I speak all languages without a word. I am in the heart that wrote this your post. Joan of Arc heard me in French. My compassion for all those suffering knows no bounds and makes no distinction. There is no other than Me here, and I Am nameless, creed-less, identity-less, skin-less, gender-less. No identifications, concepts, belief systems apply, I Am the freedom that gives rise to all. May This I Am awaken and arise in the hearts and souls minds and bodies of all people. Thus will all this insanity end. May Peace Be among all Being.
