i still haven't studied finnish seriously but it's interesting how i keep finding similarities with tagalog despite them being mostly unrelated
#like obvs vocab is different and a lot of pronunciations are different#but they're both pretty full of word forms showing different uses in the sentence#forgot what that was called#lots of affixes#kinda lots of verb conjugation too#tagalog doesn't inflect nouns tho. mostly?#and the 'ng' sound yay#i think the middle vowels (e and i) are fairly similar#and back on the grammar thing. sometimes when i see a finnish sentence and an english tl that doesn't have the same vibe#i try to translate it to tagalog instead#because the nuances of the verbs and nouns come across better imo#amd ofc some words with the same spellings but different everything else#text ko
