Thread: What are the best reasons for Learning Finnish

Usefulness:A huge proportion of Finnish speakers have at least basic English, and many of them have excellent English. All in all, I couldn't say Finnish is "'useful" but if you are spending significant time in Finland, it will be worthwhile
Beauty:With soft consonants and a fine range of vowels, Finnish can be a nicely melodic language. Unfortunately, many speakers, especially men, tend to lapse into a monotone
Speakers:Around 5 million people in Finland and a few tens of thousand in the rest of the world
