Let's Learn Estonian Episode 4 "Numbers in Estonian"

[@nathanjh13]

Your English is very good. Many Europeans develop more of an American accent (from the movies) but yours is a classy British accent and it sounds much better. Refreshing to hear.

[@sealectro]

My opinion, you should receive award for great teaching technique.

[@ellasmith5098]

Jah

[@Aussiecasey]

I could listen to your awesome accent all day

[@LittleMissSquirrel]

Aussiecasey Noone has said that yet, thanks ;).

[@zionwhipple]

thanks again, please keep making videos, they are the best Estonian learning videos on youtube!

[@alanascheel1605]

thank you so so much for your wonderful explanations. I just applied for my estonian citizenship and want to learn how to speak. :)

[@LittleMissSquirrel]

oh wow! good luck!!!

[@zulkiflijamil6172]

Yes, I will learn Estonian Language, And you are a very excellent teacher. Thank you.

[@LittleMissSquirrel]

Thank you!

[@belathe4th1]

I was married to an Estonian and visited there for a few days a long time ago. MIna armastan eesti keel! Vaga ilus! Your English is almost native speaker good, with one teeny exception: in American English, we don't "revise" (unless we are actually changing or correcting something); in your lessons, what you are doing at the end is "reviewing" (going over again). Tanan vaga!

[@paulieIRL]

''Revise'' is acceptable..

[@julianwhybra9323]

Her accent and vocabulary has obviously been well-learned from a speaker of the Queen's English and thus she uses 'revise' correctly.

[@jo_kimmons]

I'd like to say that your hair is so gorgeous. Also, thank you for taking time to make these videos. I plan on watching them again to study. So helpful!! :D

[@shazkingdom1702]

miss Squirrel....I love you and your teaching...you are the best and beauty teacher in the world... learn estonian is important to me...and now with you teach me is a honor.. thank you my wise princess :D from your pupil Djalma.

[@eville_boy]

Thank you for the lesson! The only thing I can't find is how to pronounce like 1984? Will it be üheksateist kaheksakümmend neli or üks tuhat üheksa sada kaheksaküummend neli?

[@LittleMissSquirrel]

tuhat üheksasada kaheksakümmend neli

[@DanielQuayle]

Tere! Are you pronouncing the 'k' as 'g'? Thank you for your brilliant videos!

[@dessin3dmodelingaziz190]

[@inglaneste1926]

I am English and live in Estonia. I sort of speak Estonian, but having heard how you pronounced "Üks" compared to how I think I do. I think my Estonian is terrible :D

[@juancristobalsanchezabreu98]

Like finnish numbers but a little more short .u. (fin: uksi, kaksi, kolme, nelja, viisi, kuusi ...)

[@miriami7]

Great job! Does Estonien similiar to hungarian? Thank you , Aitah :)

[@mathiassinimae7210]

Miriam ,estonian and hungarian are the languages from the same group

[@მემარივარ]

I learnt Hungarian thanks to have Hungarian relatives and Estonian in Estonia.My answer :Yes and no at the same time.Both languages have and share the same origin (finn-ugric ),but both are in different groups and are not mutually intelligible.Estonians who dont know Hungarian ,dont understand neither a single word in that language and viceversa .:D Tere -Szia Kuidas sul laheb?:D Hogy megy? Hogy vagy ?:D Minu emakeel hispaania -Az anyanyelvem a spanyol Oled vaga ilus -Nagyon szep vagy Oskan palju keeli-sok nyelvet tudok :D Etc etc :D

[@sacharose7324]

Wait... so... 108 385 = sada kaheksa tuhat kolmsada kaheksakümmend viis? 😕

[@marcusgriese5966]

Sounds right to me as another learner. 🤔

[@RobertoBaca]

Great lesson! I wish all languages had such a clear way to say numbers. One question, when you say Miljard in Estonian, does it mean 1.000.000.000 or 1.000.000.000.000 ?

[@YuliatATuVolkova]

Miljard is 1 000 000 000 and triljon is 1 000 000 000 000

[@RobertoBaca]

Marianne Ch Thank you!

[@chutzpahboo]

Roberto Baca It's interesting... In Serbian (Slavic language) there is no trillion There is milijarda and it's equivalent is English billion

[@RobertoBaca]

42ADW It is interesing. In French and Spanish one would say "milliard" or "millardo" for 1.000.000.000 (though in Spanish "mil millones" is more common), and then "billion" and "billón" for 1.000.000.000.000. Instead Estonian uses "triljon", a mixture of short scale and long scale.

[@ranadushyant]

another Uralic Language .. i wonder how are they so different from the neighboring balto-salvic and germanic groups. and that too ascended up to finland in a narrow stip of land ..from the Urals..

If it wasn't so cold I would move to Estonia... The language is beautiful, there is the sea and it's full of forests. Unfortunately I cannot stand cold temperatures XD

[@alchimistepooper]

This is absolutely not cold in summer. In fact this is more that 35°C from 4 a.m to 11:30 p.m. It means also so few hours of night. But yeah, in plain winter it's freesing cold.

[@polakposzkodzie]

I'm in love i think

[@meemii791]

Im from Finland. So this is very funny to learn because the languange is very similiar xD

[@robin2000]

Dear Squirrel, I dreamed once that I was in Estonia walking down the street and suddenly someone told me to count the houses' numbers, and I starded counting from one to twenty, but I coul nerver remember how to say "four" in Estonian which is neli, and all the time I said "neliä" in Finnish. 😅

[@მემარივარ]

[@MappuFilms]

hey Miss Squirrel! :) I'm Finnish, and I have to learn some eesti in a few days. Your videos have helped me very much, aitäh! Kiitos! :D can you speak Finnish? :o

[@LittleMissSquirrel]

Hei! I'm glad that u found them useful! :D hehe, i think Finnish and Estonian are way too difficult to learn XD so i gave up on learning Finnish (and i know estonian, cuz it's my mother tongue) :) But i do know what Kiitos means :) Thank you!

[@MappuFilms]

heh :D I can speak English, Swedish, German and Japanese (Not so good at German but I'm only 15, so I have still a lot of time to learn :D) and I have to say that Finnish is actually the hardest language I'm learning :D And its my mother tongue after all xD I speak it perfectly, but Finnish is very hard to learn if it isnt your first language, so I do understand why you gave up :) I love learning new languages cuz they are useful and easy for me to learn, so thank you for teaching me Estonian ^_^ (sorry if I wrote something wrong :c)

[@LittleMissSquirrel]

You're quite amazing! I wish i had learnt more languages, but to be honest, i was really bad at languages when i was younger... i still am but now i have a thing called motivation :) Take on Korean after Estonian, you'll find it easier than Japanese cuz the grammar is similar but they just have one alphabet ;)

[@MappuFilms]

Ok, I will ^_^ Btw, it may be hard to believe, but Japanese is actually very similar to Finnish :D the alphabet thing is of course different xD but yeah, that's just what I think :) I'll try Korean sometime... and I have just got into Korean music so it would be cool to know what they say :D

[@helenarose6704]

MappuFilms I love Swedish! My mother it 25% Swedish and 25%Estonian they re such beautifull languages

[@ZWERGofficial]

LMS! great vid! may i use a sample from this in a song? (you counting in estonian)

[@Irades]

1:37 I couldn't understand why you missed 50 and 60 , so I decided that those two numbers (50, 60) have an another way to be said :p

[@LittleMissSquirrel]

no i just took random nrs as they all are formed the same way

[@nauravanauris5551]

I watched this clip and now I can count from 1 to 100 in Estonian. When I watched a clip about Russian numbers two times I could only count to 1.

[@esterawegierska5031]

Thanks :)

[@schleumtischdichtungsgar5680]

My question would be, do you Estonians understand each other with Finns well? for example when you just want to get along with urselves in simple conversation...

[@LittleMissSquirrel]

+Kalos Paidi Not really , if you just look on the language basis. The words used are usually different or if similar then they might have different meanings. You have to guess a lot. If you look at Korean and Japanese, they have very similar grammar but then, the languages are totally different. So you can think in similar way.

[@Camroc37]

Oh! The description! Tere means good, right? That's what I got so far...

[@Camroc37]

***** yeah, don't know why I thought it meant good...

[@kristelnurkma8917]

Thanks but i just watched this vid to see if u say the words the right way cuz i'm Estonian,and i'll give a 5+ for the vid!

I was thinking about teaching Estonians English on my channel anyone think it a good idea because I do not know Ma mõtlesin õpetamise eestlased english , kees arvarb,et see on okei

[@LittleMissSquirrel]

I'm sure there will be some people, it also depends if you'd be doing it in English or in Estonian. If you will do it in estonian, the older generation who didn't learn english at school would be able to follow you. In that case your Estonian would had to be on a pretty good level :D. If in English then perhaps more advanced English would be better idea because the general level of English is quite good. But just follow your heart! Do what you feel passionate about. KZbin is a free space for any type of art form so if you are passionate about teaching Estonians some English then go for it.

[@ellasmith5098]

+Little Miss Squirrel ok thanks 🙂

[@yueseiyunosakurakonan6082]

I thought Estonian was part of Polish or Belorussian . they sound similar.

[@LittleMissSquirrel]

YueseiYuno SakuraKonan nope it's part of finno-ugric languages

[@Deines7]

Haha, white and black, how can be similar? Neither sound, neither words don't have any similarities not only with Slavonic languages but even with Germanic, Baltic and whole Indo-European languages families. Most similarities they got with Finnish and Karelian languages because belongs to same Baltic-Finnic languages roots.

[@chutzpahboo]

YueseiYuno SakuraKonan Maybe they sound as similar to an Asian person, as much as any Asian languages sound similar to average European person? If you rarely hear certain languages, I can see how they could perhaps sound alike...a little bit. To me, Estonian sounds anything but Slavic.

U dent need to learn finnish! There IS NOT any "I don't understand this" Try to read this, FULL FINNISH!! Hei! Minun nimeni on Vilma. Voin puhua enlantia ja suomea, ja ymmärrän viroa(estonia) samalla tavalla kuin ukrainalaiset venäjää. Pidän viron kielestä koska se kuulostaa tutulta, kuin turkulaiselta murteelta! Is this hard to you? Did u understand anything? You are from estonia?

[@justaparps8088]

I as a native estonian, I understanded following: All words in first sentence(row), whit exception of Ymmärrän. From second row i honestly didnt get the sentence,until i used translate button. but from words i understanded following: Viron, Kielesta(language), Koska("because", if i am right. Its "Kuna" in estonian). i know turku is a part of shout helsinki, and Murteelta means like a dialect

[@kilmameri]

Yes! Hi! My name is Vilma. I can speak English and Finnish, and I can understand Estonian just like Belarusians Russian. I like Estonian because it is so familiar (Word to word: Because it hear familiar), like Turku slang/accent. Can you write me estonian? :D

[@justaparps8088]

Muidugi, pole probleemi. Ja sõna "Raiskama", mis tähendab "vägistamist" soome keeles, tähendab eesti keeles millegi raiskamist, näiteks raha. Of course, no problem. And word "Raiskama" what means "rape" in finnish, means wasting something, like money.

[@kilmameri]

:D I did understand without translation probleemi, ja, soome, keeles, eesti and raha. Ja and raha are excatly (if you write it like that...) same. And raiskama... It is raiskata, raiskaus jne. Do you know finnish verb shapes? How do they go? If you do, is estonian that hard? I put here istua, sit verb :D Istun istut istuu istumme istutte istuvat istutaan Istuin istuit istui istuimme istuitte istuivat istuttiin Olen istunut olet istunut on istunut olemme istuneet olette istuneet ovat istuneet on istuttu Olin istunut olit istunut oli istunut olimme istuneet olitte istuneet olivat istuneet oli istuttu They are there like I sit you sit he/she sits we sit you sit they sit, and this one when we don't know, who do sit. They are then future/now, past, perfekt and pluskvamperfekt. And then negative form :D I am not going to write it, you did get it.

[@justaparps8088]

We estonians write exactly like we speak, difference may become when its gramatical. Like we may spell 3 words in a sentence as separate enities, however we write them together( i dont remember the rule, but i can give you a example i learned year ago(during my mother language class last year)) My task was to find 10 mistakes in internet new pages and fix those mistakes in my homework report, like making a small essee Example: Raketi ehitussimulaator/ Rocket building simulator ( Kerbal Space Program, a scifi game whit calculating certain values and manovering/building a rocket capaple of reaching space/planets. I wrote all of those words separatly (based on my mother language instincts(since we don't spell them together)). However teacher told me there was a rule about: If two "S" letters are side by side, for some strange reason the words becomes one bigger word. Another example could be Raudtee (Railroad in estonian), it has a similar rule why its written together). Estonian language has about 14 active cases, but wikipedia says another one exists. However i have always learned in school that 14 cases exists. (right now i am learning profession ( IT), it is about 12 class in gymnasium here. Those cases are mostly about : 1-3) Description about item/person, who owns him/her/it, and what that "subject" owns. 4-6) Description about "in" state, like in a drawer, in someones body or similar. 7-9) Description about "on" state, like on a table, on a person. 10-14) These are different. First of them is "saav", what stands roughly for becoming someone/something. Second of them is "Rajav". Its hard to translate, best description would be like building a path to something. Third is about "Being something/someone". Fourth is about "being whitout someone/something" Fifth is about "being whit someone/something" Also Estonian language is one of those languages, where gender dosen't exists, if we talk about a person, we use word: "Ta", what means he/she. And because of that, words dont change if we talk about him or her(unlike what happens in Russian language).
