Am I wrong here?
My main language is German, but I speak English too. (duh)
I know a bit Latin too.

My native language is Finnish and I also speak English quite well. I am also somewhat familiar with Swedish since most of my family speaks it and I know some basics of German.

Shit son, I love language topics.

Native: Finnish
Fluent: English
Pretty Good: Japanese
Intermediate: Spanish, Swedish
Basic: German
Very Basic: Russian, Korean
"Look I know a few words and sentences!": Estonian, Brazilian Portuguese, Italian

So why're you learning Finnish, OP? It's not exactly a useful language to know.

Mainly because it sounds cool. I also like a lot of Finnish music, and some friends of mine speak it.

Alright, that's cool. Was just curious 'cause it's a pretty rare choice for a language to learn, heh. I don't consider it too cool-sounding either, but that's probably because it's my mother tongue and I hear it all the time.

Anyway, g'luck with it man!
