There are other ways to indicate politeness such as the use of conditional and -han/hän suffix.

[@tiihtu2507]

Although when you're ordering something there's no need to use either of them.

[@pookoos]

I find Finnish a lot easier to understand than French. I think there's this myth that it's so damn hard, and it keeps people from trying! It's not. It's just different than the Romance family of languages. What makes Finnish easy for me is because the sound of the language is so staccato and consistent in pronunciation, that you can actually hear each word being spoken at you CLEARLY. French on the other hand just gets mushed together and I just can NOT hear what people are saying, even though I can read it. And I have no idea how to change that without being able to live there. SO frustrating.

About Finnish - Hard: the agglutination, ending up with very long words. Easy: you say what’s written, the rules are clear, and it’s pronounced in staccato, the syllables are easy to discern. I’d love to learn a non-romance language (I speak Spanish, English, some Italian, and a little French), but there aren’t many Soumese people in my neck of the woods...

American here fluent in US English and Mexican Spanish. I learned from several Finns that many American English speakers struggle with pronunciation. However, I discovered that if I speak with the accent I use to pronounce Spanish, they come out close to fluent because of the rolling R and emphasized vowels. Not certain if this trick applies to other accents like Italian though. For complicated words, stick to pronouncing them exactly how they're written. If there are double letters just say that letter for a bit longer. For example, "Ravintola" (Restaurant) is kinda said RA-veen-tohl-ah and "Ravintolaan" (To the restaurant) sounds like RA-veen-tohl-aaahn. You can do the same for non-vowel letters like "kk" when she says "Moikka". Also, "Yks kalja" is a good example of pronouncing tricky letters that sound different in English to me like Y = U and J = Y

Finns don’t use small talk. It’s pretty much the same for Scandinavia and a lot of Europe. They’ll give it to you straight on what they think. It’s doesn’t mean they don’t like or think less of you, it’s just their culture. Americans like to be passive-aggressive, beat around the bush, and polite and use small talk. In Finland this would be called paskapuhe or roska!

[@Choom2077]

@Teminator 2084 Well it also depends on what type of small talk it is. There are more than one. One variation of small talk is considered bullshit. Basically a way to get off a topic or away from a person without causing a potential scene from an unsuspecting unstable and possibly argumentative person. Another form is just filler to try and make awkward silent moments less awkward. Ironic though. Then there is the more, what I personally describe as sincere small talk, or good natured small talk, in which it is used out of respect for the person you're communicating with, despite not really having much to say, perhaps because you have much on your mind or simply aren't in the proper mood to have discussion. It's not exactly better, but at the very least not meant to offend while vacating discussion sessions. With trained ears and eyes, one can tell the difference between the two. Body language usually helps. Language is a means to an end afterall. I'm currently learning basic words in Finnish but I never knew the about certain things Fins avoid in terms of communication. It's good to know these things.
