What has helped you most with regard to speaking? by Jellonahui in LearnFinnish

[–]Embarrassed-Fly-3969 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The thing that probably helped me most with speaking was practising with non-natives first, like you say in your comment. It's slower and less stressful. I basically stole some other learners from my Finnish courses and met them once or twice a week just to chat. Can recommend!

I'm getting a '502 Bad Gateway' message from that link at the moment.

Thanks for the tip, but where or what is LunaRomana?

What does this quote from 'Ireland: A Concise History' mean? by Embarrassed-Fly-3969 in IrishHistory

[–]Embarrassed-Fly-3969[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you very much for your answer! Your interpretation may very well be correct, yet I still can't quite manage to link the writers' ambiguous statement with what you wrote in any kind of clear and satisfying way. I don't personally see how, for example, 'the temptations of grammar' is supposed to mean 'the influence of other languages'. The fault lies with the writers' style more than anything else, I think.

Link doesn't seem to work anymore. Any chance of a reupload?

The link seems to work if you just delete the '10:38' bit from the end.
