I am looking for a language partner from Sweden, so my swedish does not sound so Finlandssvensk. I took some swedish classes at Hanken School of Economics and already speak swedish in my daily life here (at the store, cafe, bank and other public places). I plan to move to Stockholm soon (in 1 - 2 months). In return, I can help you with english, indonesian or french learning. :D For french, I have been learning french extensively for 5 years. But since I move to Finland to pursue my master degree at the University of Vaasa, I don't really find people to practice my french. Currently, I took several french classes at the university just to keep using my french and make my student union fee worth while. :D So, I would be happy to find a french language partner here, so my fluency does not fade away.

    Letter to University

    Dear Ms Smith,

    I am writing to express my interest in the computer science program provided at Indiana University. I need to know information about the duration of program, curriculum, and fees.

    Can you please tell me about the future Jobs can graduates have after they finish the program? if you send to me a brochure about that it will be good.

    Another issue I want to ask about the types of accommodation available in the university and its cost.


    About me, I finished my secondary school on 1st of June 2016. I have got 87% degree in the science section. I had the academic IELTS exam in the last august and my overall mark was 7.5 ( 7.5 in writing, 8 in reading, 7 in listening, 8 in speaking ). 

    Kindly send to me the list of document needed for the university acceptance.

    I look forward to hearing from you.

    Regards
    Tom Jonson

    Hi Loic!

    Please do not generalize all SE Asians. It is not an issue for Indonesian speakers (and we are statistically the majority in SE Asia), as we have very thick "R" sounds in many words. I remember how my parents trained me when I was little, they told me to put the tip of my tongue behind my upper teeth while saying many words with "R" sounds. Generally, we pronounce "R" like the Dutch. Given the fact that we were colonized by the Dutch for 3.5 centuries. All I can remember I needed to struggle to smoothen my "R" sounds when I firstly learned english.  You can google to seek how Indonesian sounds like. 

    So maybe you can teach these other SE Asians with the Indonesian method as mentioned above. If Indonesians can do it, other SE Asians can too. :D

    Cheers

    Connie

    Subjonctif is deadly difficult. The partitive article in french is also tricky to use when composing them altogether in a long sentence.

    Hej!

    Jag är inte finnsvensk men Jag bor i Vasa.  Jag kan visa dig några dialekter i Österbotten, Finland. De låter konstiga, och jag kan inte springa infrån dem. :p

    Hälsningar
