On May 12th, 2015 I gave a talk titled “Can you learn the hardest language in the world?” about the somewhat surprising challenges of learning Finnish.
I had a lot of fun with this talk, planning it and watching it come together (almost had a mind of its own) 🙂
The Tedx talk explores the question ‘Can you learn the hardest language in the world?’Â referring to Finnish, and what enables or disables us to answers YES. I also invited Finns & foreigners to start conversations with friends and family about these topics so don’t hesitate to share and discuss with Finnish friends too!
After you watch the video, I’d love it if you could leave a comment below with your #1 biggest takeaway from the talk!
Sincerely,
Irina
