I was writing a test from GERMAN and what does my brain give me when I'm supposed to write congratulations? Not "gut gemacht" or "ich gratuliere dich"

Paljon onnea. God damn finnish paljon onnea.

God damn Käärijä brainrot got me wild

#did i start learning finnish because if käärijä? yes #duolingo is doing something i guess #i mean good that i remeber something #but i needed GERMAN #not finnish #finnish #finland #käärijä

Here’s my take on the whole audio books vs. reading:

Oral tradition of storytelling predates written ones by millennias, and honestly, which one you like is just a personal preference.

The actual difference is

when listening, you have no idea how to write characters’ names

when reading, you have no idea how to pronounce characters’ names

hope this helps!

#audio books vs reading #honestly this debate is just pineapple on pizza again #personally i like reading better #i’m a poor listener and since i read faster than people talk i get bored and my mind starts to wander #but who gives a shit #just do what works best for you #in the end we all get the same story #oh and this post is about stories in english #in finnish you rarely have either problem

Why did you learn Finnish?

To communicate with my parents and extended family. At age 1 I started to feel a bit hungry and decided I should start speaking so that my parents would feed me.

Hope this helps!

US authorities have turned to Europe for help with the country's severe egg shortage. The shortfall is due to bird flu, which has plagued the United States for several years.

The Finnish Poultry Association says it has been contacted about exporting eggs to the US. The organisation's executive director, Veera Lehtilä, told Yle on Saturday that exporting eggs does not seem to be possible at the moment because no market access negotiations have been held with US authorities. This can be a drawn-out process involving extensive inspections and studies.

According to the Danish magazine AgriWatch, the US has also requested eggs from Denmark, Sweden and the Netherlands.

One of Sweden’s biggest egg producers, Kronägg, told the daily Aftonbladet that it is unlikely to export eggs to the US, saying it would be difficult due to various export restrictions. Meanwhile, there is also an egg shortage in Europe.

A recent convo I had about how Finnish people tend to hug way less than some other cultures do, made me wonder how common hugs actually are in different cultures. So, help a lad out and tell me when was the last time you were hugged? (like, properly, not one of those "blink and you miss it" one-arm-over-the shoulder deals).

Please choose the option closest to your situation.

(Also would be neat if folks would reblog and mention in tags where do they hail from, since that was sorta the point sparking this poll in the first place)

#i myself am from finland and the last real hug i got was around 5 years ago #when my grandma passed away #finnish #finland
