Greetings from Finland!

[alloydog]

"Hello" from northern Finland - I'm a Brit who's firmly entrenched in the this tropical paradise.  Been here a long time, had a few language lessons, but ready need to practice more!

I did search for "finnish" and found the last post about Finnish seems to be from October last year!

 

I have a lot of the basics, like "hello, my name is..., I am from ...." and so on, and I can go shopping quite easily.  However, I can't do my job in Finnish, as it would take to long for me to work out what to say.  For me, starter courses are too basic, but the advance stuff are way to advanced.

Hi, alloydog! I'm a native finnish speaker so just wanted to say hi! I'm new to the forum, but if you need any help with your finnish language learning I'd be happy to help.
So if you come across something you can't find information about just ask if you want to!

Thanks for the offer.  I'm surrounded by Finns and use Google translate (not perfect, but it generally gives the correct meaning, if not a proper translation), but I guess I really need someone with the patience to practice with...
