This thread is as stupid as the one called Count to 3. It serves the purpose of showing Kiprobalhato that threads need not be philosophical elaborations. -- Here we go.

Well, it is perfect Finnish. We use to greet one another saying "Nolla ja lehmät."

Need to get back to my study after breakfast. My brain has been much for the past couple of days. Last time I looked on Memrise there were 514 words due to revise. :?

Indeed... did we ever discuss the pronunciation of Finnish double consonants? If we did, all right. If we didn't, they are pronounced precisely as in Italian. Example, tutti. In Italian, it means "all." In Finnish, it is the baby's comforter. Same sound at the tt.

^that was supposed to read 'my brain has been mush'.

Yes, we have discussed consonants before. I am quite happy with Finnish pronunciation (unlike French, which is deliberately ambiguous). It is just remembering everything that gives me trouble. I am getting there slowly though.

And thanks for the new word, I shall always remember 'tutti' now. Not that I have much use for that particular word. 8)

Sorry, I mean this thing -- baby's dummy. (Comforter is perhaps an obsolete word.) The following is the Finnish tutti.
