Thank you for watching!
♥ KatChats ♥
Again: great tips. Kiitos paljon tästä. To me, your channel is, sincerely, one of the best for who wants to learn Finnish in an easier form. Keep doing this great job!
I think we have been in a journey in at least 5 countries by just watching your videos. Language lessons and travel scenery. Yay us, 10/10 channel
Hahahah things will calm down after Korea xD
@@KatChatsFinnish That is not a complaint. The exact opposite. I love seeing tours of countries that I might not get the chance to visit
I was watching in the dark. A gnat landed on your face. I finally killed it. Kiitos paljon Kat.
I can remember trying to ask "kuinka kallis on?" but confused "kaunis" with "kallis". The sales assistant looked mystified until I repeated "kuinka paljon?" - I felt really stupid... Learning a language is hard work but it can be amusing too! Kiitos Katja!!
don't worry man, mistakes happen. I've made tons of mistakes too when i was tryna speak finnish with people
I've learned a lot from your channel!!and still learning!! kiitos paljon!!
Kiitos! :D
You always make Finnish more easier to understand. Kiitos paljon opettaja
Kiitos paljon!
Kiitos for another cool lesson! 🕺🏿 I like to use this by myself in the store (even tho the prices are everywhere) as a practice. And telling the price as a practice for numbers 🙈
Amazing tip for others wanting to practice more too! :D
Please q video on schedule would be great 👍 anyway you are rocking girl lots of love from Kenya
OH MY, I just got a thought that I'd need this kind of vocabulary before another trip to Finland this summer, and here you are! So useful, I really appreciate your work:)!
Amazing timing then! I really hope you have an amazing trip to Finland! :D
Kiitos paljon, terveisiä Meksikosta!
Kiitos paljon! Please, make a video teaching how to say...
1. I am hungry.
2. I am thirsty.
3. I am sleepy.
4. I am tired.
5. I am cold.
6. I am hot.
Great help this video, I'm in Finland at the moment and don't have a clue what I'm doing so this is very useful
Always so good to listen to your lessons, since you have such a special style. :)
Exactly! I totally agree!
Is all we need it! Kiitos Kat!
As always great video! Thank you for all of this content that you do 💕
Thank you for your interesting classes❤❤❤
Terve Harkovasta))) Kiitos videoista! Ole hyvä, puhu vähemmän englanniksi ja enemmän suomeksi sinun videoissa)))
Yritän, mutta mun pitää laittaa tekstitykset itse ja siinä kestää tooooooodella paljon aikaa xD
is it Ok to say "Paljon se maksaa?" Glad to see your channel here in youtube very helpful contents it helps me well to study the language finnish..Nice ma oon filippiineilta
Yes! You could say it like that too
There is also a common phrase "paljonko tämä maksaa". Instead of "kirjakieli" I would rather say "yleiskieli" (i.e. general language), because "kirjakieli" is literally book language. However, it is not only used in books, but quite generally in speech as well. There is also a wide "grey area" between puhekieli and yleiskieli. As you notice, this girl is sometimes a bit unsure whether a certain form belongs to puhekieli or yleiskieli. Notice also how many ways there are to express this simple question in Finnish. This is an indication of the richness of the Finnish language. I think it would also be important to point out that there is no single puhekieli, but people speak in a great number of ways in different parts of the country. They are mostly based on dialects which are hardly spoken any more anywhere in their old clean form.
Wishing everyone a happy midsummer 🔥 🎉day and sunny 🌞 summer season!
You are very helpful i feel less alone and less desperate while learning 😍😹
Moi! ☺️ Can you please make a simplest video about telling directions in Finnish language ❤️🙏 for example: the laundry area is on the right side of the 3rd door.
Kiitos! ☺️☺️☺️
Moi Kat! I hope you will do a video regarding negative past tense with -nut principle ending. Mä opiskelen suomen kieltä. 🇫🇮😉
Lol It even sounds confusing for me
Grammar is always confusing
Thank you

Would you ever do a video about Estonia and Finnish-Estonian relations.
I could! I would just have to do a lot of research before filming since I don't know thaaat much about it :)
@@KatChatsFinnish i was thinking the same thing, there have to be false friends
Like kallis for instance
@@jancovanderwesthuizen8070 i guess Estonian is mixture of Russian and Finnish
Because when they speak sounds more Russian
And belongs to finno urgic family
@@marin_1441 Estonian also has more German influence. If they have two verbs, one will be at the end like in German
@@marin_1441 Saying that Estonian is a mixture of Russian and Finnish is linguistically sloppy. Estonian is its own language. It developed from a common ancestor that it shares with Finnish. I know it has a significant number of loan words from German. There are surely some Russian loan words too. There may perhaps be some Russian influence on the pronunciation too, I don't know. Other than pidgins and creoles, perhaps, there's really no language that's a mixture of two or more others. There are languages that may have borrowed lots of vocabulary or other features from other languages, but just randomly mixing all sorts of bits from two different languages just doesn't make sense. At its core, Estonian is Estonian. If there were some point in the past where two languages mixed all sorts of features, how would that have worked? How would the people at the time of mixing have communicated with each other? What sort of a committee guided the mixing? I've heard it said that English is a mixture of Anglo-Saxon and French. Again, how would this have worked? No, English is Anglo-Saxon at its core. It's just that England was ruled by French-speaking Normans for centuries. As the centuries passed, more and more loanwords were borrowed into Anglo-Saxon until its vocabulary was more French than Anglo-Saxon, but the grammar and the pronunciation are still Anglo-Saxon.
Kiitos paljon
I remember learning on duolingo something like "paljonko se maksaa?" would it be fine?
Yes, it's completely fine alternative👌🏻
just another way of forming the same question.
"-ko" is a question marker ending that you can use to make questions of many kinds of words.
"paljon" means "much", so "paljonko" is "how much".
It is also used for example when asking time: "Paljonko kello on?" = "What time it is? (literally = How much is the clock?:D)
In both of these sentences you can swap "paljonko" with "mitä", which would make them a bit more casual.
"se" is a pronoun meaning "it", so in Kat's example she just used "tämä/tää" which means "this". Also, there is no puhekieli version of "se" so you're good to go:) just choose appropriate word accordingly.
So "paljonko se maksaa?" = little bit more formal way of saying "how much does it cost?"
@@julleri783: Kiitos.
Also adding that some people in Finland (especially younger people) change the -ko to -ks. So paljonko would change to paljonks.
Paljonks tää maksaa? Would be something you hear a lot. This of course applies to every other word you can put the -ko ending, for example
Vähänkö toi on hieno! -> Vähänks toi on hieno!
Kauanko sulla kestää? -> Kauanks sul kestää? (sul and sulla are interchangeable)
I myself am a young Finnish person and I'm not telling you to speak like this, but I think it's good to know :)
Moi! new subscribers here 😊
Welcome :D
Love u 😊
I was actually expecting the ultimate informal 'mitä tää maksaa?' version
Hi can you please tell me which your vdo teaching about / Woud you like to ....eat? You want to....? How to ask ..thank you
"haluaisitko" = would you like to ___
"haluutko" = would you like to __ (puhekieli)
"haluutsä" = would you like to ___ (also puhekieli)
For example: haluutko syödä? = would you like to eat?
@@KatChatsFinnish kiitos
Hi greetings from Philippines :)
Hello 😊
What is the difference between maksa vs maksaa?
Can I say Kuinka tää halpa?(will it make any sense)
In these examples, "maksaa" is the third person singular indicative. (It can also be the infinitive or the singular imperative.) "Maksa" is the connegative form, i. e., the form used after the negative verb.
@@bigscarysteve can you simplify it like example?
"Kuinka tää halpa" is not correct, it sounds weird ("how this cheap", it's weird in English as well). I wouldn't use "halpa" when asking about the price, we don't do that here, it just sounds unnatural, but if you really really want to use it anyway, the correct sentence would be "kuinka halpa tämä/tää on?". "Kuinka" and "halpa" need to be together, otherwise the meaning is broken and changes to some weird poetry-like wondering "how/why is this cheap".
Can we meet and teach me finnish language when I get there? 🙂
Is it possible "Mitä tää maksaa?"? I guess that's the shortest "puhekieli" way 🤔
Yes you can! :)
idk brou.
Paljon kiittos!

@@marin_1441 3:21 now. But I meant I wasn't going to make the first comment. Sometimes I get the RUclips notifications in time.
@@marin_1441 East Coast
"Kui paljon" is Turku dialect
Aaand...how to ask a Finnish cute lady out??
Don't ask a fish how to fish.
In some dialects it's like: "kui pal tää o?". I would say: Paljon tää on? / No, mikä on hinta?
Jep, so many ways to ask xD
Great tip here: se on vitun kallis!
Btw Today is also
Juhannus
So hyvä juhannus
Hyvää juhannusta!
Moi
Another puhekieli way = Paljonko tää maksaa?
