Finnish Tongue Twisters


This past week has been cool (and also cold) for several reasons:
The first is that everyday here in Finand, we lose five minutes of daylight. Doesn't sounds like much, but every 12 days we lose and hour of daylight!! Sun currently rises at about 7:48 AM and sets at 6:28PM!
The second reason is because I have been taught a lot of Finnish Tongue twisters. I can already say Päärynäjäätelötötterrö (pair icecream cone) and can almost say "Vesi hiisi sihisi hississä" (A water monster hisses in an elevator). Here is a list of other Finnish Tongue Twisters. There are translations into English and also pronounciations on some of them. I recommend checking it out if you have some spare time
