Is it right?

Post by p19 » Sun May 28, 2006 8:31 pm

I want to found my blog written in finnish language to improve my language skills, because I have no occasion to speak with finnish. But I'm not sure with name:

I want to name it "Finland in the czech point of view", is it right "Suomi tshekin katsolta"? Or can I use Suomi tshekin katsolta?


Thank you

No, that's not right. "katsolta" is not really a finnish word. Perhaps you were thinking of "Suomi tsekin kannalta", but that's not really appropiate name for a blog.

You could use something like "Suomi tsekkiläisen (or tsekin)silmin","Suomi tsekkiläisen näkökulmasta", "Tsekki Suomessa", or something like that.

I would use "näkökulma(sta)" for "point of view". Suomi Tšekin näkökulmasta. Or Suomi tšekkiläisen näkökulmasta if you want to indicate a Czech person rather than the country itself.

Ok, but you don't use it that way.

Ok, so I'll use "Suomi tsekin näkökulamsta" - is that right?

I don't want to use "tsekkiläisen" because it's too long.

That would be right, except for: näkökulmasta.

"Suomi tsekin silmin" - as suggested by MHH - would be snappier, though. Trust me, I'm a pro.

In Finnish a Czech is actually tšekki. :twisted:

(EDIT: And ajk seems to have written it before I did. Sorry.)

Yeah, I know - but the pun would work better without the "proper" spelling :)
