Good point. What's also good is I'm not quite classed as an 'adult' yet, so I'd better get learning fast!

IIRC the ability to learn a language drops drastically after the age of 8.

Languages are full of lovely greetings. Hello, there, Bob Fleming here...

What a pleasant day. It just starts yet another marvellous afternoon.

Doesn't anyone mind us terribly hung-over buggers who
wish nothing else but to stop it?

Clive, the fight's off. The arbitrator has decided that the game was yours from the start.

Phuoahh....

Hank, thanks a lot for the invitation. I got the time and place together hours ago, but I cannot come. I have to drive some car tonight (er..mine) and beer without alcohol doesn't really taste that good. :(

And I really drank yesterday (haha, poor sod) more that I should have.
I have probably last drunk on a Tuesday in the 1990's. Or so it righteously feels. Can't they just get rid of these ridiculous summer holidays altogether?

I'll refrase the above as a SMS to your hands-free.

Very true. I only just figured out what's in my signature a few minutes ago.

>> I tried that with nukkapinissonaikastanopikea and it seems that it has some irregularity to it unless it's just something to do with the -ea ending. <<

There are no Finnish verbs that end in "-ikea" as your verb did, "-okea", "-ukea" and "-akea" are possible as in "hokea", "lukea" and "hakea".
