I attended Finland's centennial celebrations in Washington, D.C., and fell in love with the country and its philosophies. I find that many of the cultural qualities are also what I strive for in life- less small talk, respect for nature, honesty, and so on. I am enjoying the language and its ability to express many emotions, and look forward to hearing from you if you are interested in English or Hindi language exchange. Hola! Aprendé español en la universidad y me gusta el idioma, literetura, música, y más. Me gustaría buscar una compañera para practicar y mejorar mi español porque uso la lengua en mi trabajo con mucha frecuencia. De cuento, puedo enseñarle Hindi o Ingles.

    The expression is "Fall off the face of the earth" - which means that someone has disappeared so completely or have not been in contact with anyone, so much so that it seems they are just not on earth anymore :)

    Rumi/Ghalib in Farsi/English

    In the English speaking world, the author Coleman Barks' translations of Rumi's works are quite famous. He is known as the best translator for Rumi's works. 

    I know that in any translation, the essence of the work may not be as good as the original. Keeping this in mind, has anyone read Rumi's works in English and Farsi and found that Barks has not done a good job?

    I have another book of Ghalib, which prints his Urdu (similar to Farsi) in the Hindi script, without translation, and then expands on the meaning in English. In this translation though, 2 line or 4 line verses have a page or more than a page long explanation. The Rumi poems on the other hand have been written as poems. 

    So I am just curious, if we are getting out of Rumi in English, all that we should :)

    Thanks!

    That is absolutely great for a formal letter. If you want to convey that message with fewer words, you can also say: - Please let me know if you may need anything else from me. - Do let me know if you have any other questions or concerns. - I would be happy to answer any other questions you may have.

    Future Tense in Finnish Minä luen että Suomea ei ole "future tense". Mutta, Mondly kirjoittaa että "future tense" on-- tulen verbi+maan ja verbi+mään tulen lukemaan tulet lukemaan tulee lukemaan tulemme lukemaan tulette lukemaan tulevat lukemaan And then this website explains how the future tense is used - http://www.uusikielemme.fi/future.html What is a good way to combine all of this advice? Thanks!

    Opia tai opetella? Minä opin Suomea = I learn Finnish. Minä opettelen Suomea = I am learning Finnish. What is the difference, if any, between the two root verbs opia and opetella? Does Finnish not have a "present continuous" tense?

    Opiskellen Soumea Minä opiskellen soumea. Ensimmäinen, tämä kieli näyttää vaikea, mutta jos opit hitaasti, voit puhua hyvä. Opiskellen hyvin koska kirjoitan. Jos kirjoitan, muistan. Kaikki sanat ovat uusia. Mutta jos näen sanat joka päivää, sanat en näyttävat vaikea. Minun Italki ystävykset auttavat minun. Kiitos todella paljon!

    Hey guys, 

    I came across US FSI's free online materials for mastering languages. It's pretty old but great. The Finnish course is here - http://www.101languages.net/finnish/free-finnish-course/

    You can find a lot of other languages by playing around on the website. 

    Cheers!
