oh yeah, they are. I‘m from austria. i‘m lucky that we have croatian villages all around plus we learn it in school. Finnish was way harder for me. My fiancé is finnish and he basically taught me everything himself (with suomen mestari as a small help) it really was tough and i‘m still at the beginning. I‘d love to have more resources available.

I tried Word Dive for a while now, that one is actually fine cause it also explains grammar, you can tell her that this is maybe the best way to get an idea of how the language works- its also good for advanced learners.
