^ that is just taking sounds and rearranging them.

Suola = salt                a normal mistake when bending the word 'suola' is to make it 'suolia' while the correct word is 'suoloja' because the word 'suolia' means intestines. It is because you can bend a substantive
Suoli  = Intestine        so many times that one hardly can remember 5 ways, lets see....

lets take a basic word 'Kirja = book'
Kirja, Kirjan, Kirjojen, Kirjasta, kirjalta, kirjalle, kirjaan, kirjoineen, kirjaa, kirjana.... Which are used to mean a book in different place, space, type, what is in it, where it is, whose it is and so on.
and the word 'kirja' must not be mixed with 'kirjain = character of the alphabet'

Then ofc, Viina and Liima (booze and glue) miss a letter and oops!
 Kisa and Kissa (race and a cat)
Sure every language have these... but still....

Then into something more practical: Lainaisin Kirjan = I would like to loan a book  but, write it like this 'Lainasin Kirjan' and it turns into I loaned a book. sure, they can be used in the same text, but the other comes before other or it makes no sense.

But this is stupid. I Still think finnish is a lot harder than english, at least, in written form. (spoken finnsih is soo~ easy when compared to english....)


...mainly because in written english, I can drop out letters and mix them, and it is still understandable, while in Finnish, each and every letter matters.

Edit, found a perfect wordplay to describe how wonderful language finnish is.
- Kokoo kokoon koko kokko, Kokko.
- Koko kokkoko?
- Koko kokko.
Kokko kokosi kokoon koko kokon.

I was writing an assignment on voltage collapse and viola my area under goes a voltage collapse. Nice. Must be the stupid construction work someone is doing down there. They re using way too many welding machines and crap which can cause this seeing that the area is very small.

Hurry up and finish it so you can move onto the second one :P

Personally I've been (currently stalled because I don't know where to take it) writing a story :P

Everyone I shared it with said it was good but written really bad lol - Well it is only a draft!!!

What am I up to, I think last time I checked it was about 13k words
I'll do the flipping on webcam so people know it's legit.

Recently, I'm soundproofing my room.
Got all 3 sides of the door done. The only thing left is the bottom of the door. Wonder how am I gonna soundproof that.

I said I was enjoying being cold. My flatmates like it way too warm anyway, and my window has to be open because my place always smells like smoke.
The strugg life is for me.

I think I'm allergic to smokers. Eyes water, nose starts running, and I start sneezing. Hate it.

My eyes get slightly irritated or teary, nose and throat clog up, and in extreme cases the left half of my chest gets itchy. -.-
