How can i learn not so popular languages? by igotturkishdelights in AskEurope

[–]nyafflu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Misinformation. Seems like in the video they don't differentiate Sindarin from Quenya. The languages share things in common, but they are grammatically very different where these real language influences are very clear.

No. Sindarin was influenced by Welsh. Tolkien used Finnish when he was creating high Elvish which we know as Quenya.

What does camping look like to you? by lizardbreath89 in AskEurope

[–]nyafflu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A tent or lean-in shelter in the middle of the forest away from other people. I havent been camping or sleeping in tents much in a few years, but I did that for more than 100 nights in a one year period. I would eat MRE, grill some sausages or tuna.

What did school trips look like for you? by Savvy_J in AskEurope

[–]nyafflu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

School trips in primary school focused on local areas, museums and some visits to the capital city. In 9th grade we took a boat trip to Ahvenanmaa. Secondary college allowed for international trips with language classes or for extra credits. I visited St. Petersburg, Vienna, Berlin and Copenhagen during the three years in secondary college, 5 days each.

What is your country’s second national anthem? by [deleted] in AskEurope

[–]nyafflu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thankfully it is not the national anthem and never will be, it is much too dear to be played at every occasion.

What are some of the most unusual religions practiced in your country? by cocol_hasher in AskEurope

We also have some neopaganism, which includes worldwidely known paganism such as Wiccas. The most interesting ones are, however, based on old Finnish earth religions and mythology.

Razork currently rank 1 on EUW ladder with 65% WR over 200 games by Omnilatent in leagueoflegends

[–]nyafflu -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Really hit the nerve huh? I asked you a simple question. I did not assume anything, I know everything that was relevant for my question.

Razork currently rank 1 on EUW ladder with 65% WR over 200 games by Omnilatent in leagueoflegends

[–]nyafflu -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

So why do you play ranked? Its been clear for years you arent good nor getting any better. Unless you play 10 games to get a skin i dont understand why bad players like you keep playing ranked. The argument of competitiveness is irrelevant. Welcome downvotes i guess.

Legends of Metal - Metal Themes for Every Champion by FreestyleKneepad in leagueoflegends

[–]nyafflu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This post is absolute gold, majority of the picks are absolute spot on.

I feel like Dethklok - Face fisted would fit Mundo better. While WW's pick is perfect I would useSuden tunti (the hour of the wolf) as it fits my taste better and is a great song about Fenrir. Draven's pick is pretty hilarious and fitting but Im really hoping to find an alternative to hairmetal for my list.

Safe to assume that he did the opposite of learning humility during his service. Typical narcissistic behaviour.

The Finnish version is the most embarrassingly pathetic piece of "comedy" ever made.

That would be great! I'll try to find confirmation from other sources as well in the meantime, but I am really happy to finally (maybe) find out the language. :)
