    I always appreciate how you’re trying to find the most precise and accurate translations to all the responses that generally mean all the same. You also elaborate on each one, trying to fit the manner to characterize each response more which helps the learner to figure out the situation and attitude for when to use which one. For me (a translator and a perfectionist in learning a new language) it’s really important, so thank you so much 🙏🏻💛

    As a native English speaker who has just started learning Finnish, your videos are so helpful, definitely one of the best learning resources around! They are really backing up and reinforcing things I am learning elsewhere, and making them memorable with real-life examples, plus adding on more colloquial vocabulary that I am not learning elsewhere. Many thanks!!

    I came back to find my comment from a year ago where I asked the following genuine question (it wasn't a criticism - honest!) -
    "Is vocal fry (creaky voice) part of Finnish these days? Can you omit it, or will it mean you won't sound authentic? (I really dislike it)"
    - because I just watched a recent UA-cam video all about vocal fry. The presenter, Dr Geoff Lindsey, singled out Finns as being particularly prone to doing it. When he started to say about "Other languages can use vocal fry much more widely ... " my ears pricked up because I just KNEW he was going to talk about Finnish! The first piece, with TV examples, starts at 16 mins and 14 seconds: ua-cam.com/video/Q0yL2GezneU/v-deo.html . He later answered my above question for me, too, at 22 mins 14 seconds ... citing a study by people from two Finnish universities which seemed to confirm that the absence of a creaky voice can make a non-native Finnish speaker sound less fluent when speaking in Finnish.
    So, it seems that imitating vocal fry WILL make you sound more authentic 🙂. Maybe you could use this as a future video topic? I will have to miss out on copying that, unfortunately ... because, as I said, I really dislike doing it ... I am such a baby about it - it tickles my throat!

    An answer that my teacher gave me, which sounds similar to this one 6:18 is “ei kurjuutta kummempaa”. I don’t know the direct translation to English, but I remember that it means something alone the lines of “No more misery” in English. And it is my go to answer for “mitä kuuluu?”

    • @tomfougstedt
      @tomfougstedt 2 роки тому +2

      That would literally translate to "nothing more special than misery", which now that I think about it sounds hilarious.

    • @pasifred8589
      @pasifred8589 2 роки тому +2

    Thank you very much :) so many different useful answers!
    Mulla on kysymys! "Mitä kuuluu?" means "How are you?", right? But, how to say if I want to ask about another person or... for example, how Sidney's things are going? like I am asking you "How is Sidney? How are Sidney's things?"

    • @KatChatsFinnish
      @KatChatsFinnish  2 роки тому +2

      I guess one way to ask would be:
      "Kuinka/Miten Sidney voi" = How is Sidney doing or literally translated "How is Sidney's well-being?"
      And you could also ask:
      "Miten Sidneyllä menee?" = How are things going for Sidney
      More casually I guess you could even just say "Miten Sidney on?" = How is Sidney
      So yeah there you have a few options haha :D

    • @KatChatsFinnish
      @KatChatsFinnish  2 роки тому

      terveellinen is the basic form of "healthy". terveelliset is plural. "terveellistä" is the elative case form - you would use this for example when talking about food I guess "tämä on terveellistä ruokaa" = this is healthy food.

  • @artokojo

    In addition, here in Finland, there is ALWAYS possibility, that someone actually answers the question. The answer then might contain dark truths, sorrow, loneliness, serious sickneses. Be also prepared to true answers.
