  • Hi guys! I found this old storybook in my parents' place. I thought you might enjoy hearing some old-fashioned Finnish, so here we go!
    Translating this kind of Finnish was a little challenging, and I decided not to try to translate it word for word (I believe that would be very hard to understand). The story even had some phrases that I wasn't familiar with, but I did my best to translate the meaning of them.
    Here's my playlist of old Finnish stories:

    I enjoy the book your reading to us. I don't understand anything but I'm trying to learn Finnish. It helps to pronounce the words. I recommend doing more videos if your able to like this one.
    Thank you. Your doing a great job.

    I very much enjoyed this story, but .... if I want it in my langauge tool I will need to type in the Finnish text. Still, thank you for the video and the story, I very much appreciate it! EDIT: I might be able to use my phone to get the type the text. I will keep you appraised.
